What's due for Wed, Oct. 5?

So, a lot of you didn't show up to class tonight. Too cool for school...
Here are a few things to consider bringing to class next week.
1. Your final project B. Printed, flush mounted, 10x10".
2. Post your final illustration on the server. Use a similar folder name as before. This time it will be named "LastnameFirstname_B". Place your Illustrator file within this folder.
3. We will begin work on project C. Bring in some catalogs that you can tear up. We will be recreating these spreads in InDesign. Also, bring in a ruler and pen to mark up the catalog spreads that you tear out.

That will be all.

I cannot figure out how to put things up on the server for Peder, any help ??? Its been almost a week and I've struggled with it

Interactive Bauhaus

This site offers an interactive experience in discovering art from the Bauhaus school. It covers the time frame of 1919 to 1933. The most amazing thing to me about this, is seeing what teachers and students created during that era. In some ways, it's not far off from what we are doing now. Art can be timeless...
