Peace. Love. Pop. (ART 211): Post It. Pop it.

I suppose I was a bit inspired by Professor Echeverry's Modern Saints portraits from his website when doing my grid art project. (http://www.echeverry.tv/?f=photos&b=saints) I decided the best way to effectively translate an image from its original form into a grid was to project the image and build the project on top of it.

I decided the coolest way to do this (in keeping with the theme of my pop blog) was to use Post It Notes. I snuck into Plant Hall for a 3 hour night marathon of sticking post its to a projector screen. It ended up a lot bigger than the minimum requirement. Things I learned:

1) Post Its do not stick to screens. I had to use a small piece of scotch tape to get them to temportarily stay.

2) Do not assume a room will be free for the rest of the night when two professors tell you it is. A club meeting interrupted me an hour in. I had to wait outside and finish later

3) All projectors in Plant Hall automatically turn off at 10:20. I learned this the hard way and had to finish up without it. At least there wasn't much left.

4) Plant Hall is definitely haunted. I seriously can not explain the things I experienced that night.

I recreated what the projected image looked like on top of the Post Its...
