Origami World

If you think of this in the context of my previous post, this could be the representation of what will bring peace to this world. By everyone making that consious decision to change. ^_^

Charrette Project 2009 UCONN

This is the info and some pictures related to my Charrette Project ( I swear I will one day be able to spell that without looking at my notebook >_<)

1.) Define something you want to change in your life: 

Something I want to change about myself is to re-connect with myself and my passion for my art.. I feel that since College and working several jobs at once I have not given myself time to do what I really want to do, and do projects I really want to do. So I plan to give myself some time every day to do projects just for myself and also revisit projects that I told myself I would one day finish.

2.) What do you want to change at the University?:

What I want to change at the University is the segregation of majors. I feel that as you get further in your studies you tend to stick either with those you've been with since Freshman year or with those you see everyday in your department. But in reality every major and profession will need each other someday, even if indirectly. So i wish that there were a way that art students could work with science majors, music majors with the business school, and psychology with engineering majors. Even though it is a difficult feat, it would be nice if different majors could interact with respect the effort they put into their own work rather then criticize and demean. 

3.) What do you want to change in the world?

As much as I want to say I want to change hatred, war, and crime, I think what I want is for everyone to stop, take a look around, and think about everything their doing for one minute. Then maybe someone might think twice about any type of destructive decision, and that could bring us a little closer to peace. 

4.) Research an image that epitomizes change for you. 

I chose a picture of Origami directions because it showsthe process of changing a piece of paper to an art form. I feel this shows my view of change becasue the piece of paper could never change without the active decision of a person to make that cjange. I feel that is the basis of any type of change, THE DECISION TO CHANGE AND MAKE IT HAPPEN.

5.) Research a text quote that epitomizes change for you. 

" Life can either be accepted or changed. If it is not accepted, it must be changed. If it cannot be changed, it must be accepted." -unknown
