hello friend,

i am currently in the pc lab and i am about to start my "castle". i am glad that cheryl recognized me during my CCST class earlier in the week and we ended up talking about not knowing how to start our second assignment. i think one of the reasons that contributed to me not finishing the artstream program in 2022 was the way i was attending to my practice but i need to give myself some grace, it was my first time after all. shoutout to Kaz (from MADT, i think) who is in the room with me right now, at least i'm not alone.

to be honest, i struggle to start because unlike the first assignment, this has no kind of prompt/brief, i don't have a reason for the season (what even is that, and from where did i hear this phrase?), all we were told to do (from what i understand and what my brain is telling me right now) is to create a "castle structure" using the new functions/commands/techniques we were shown in class earlier in the week. so as usual, i did some human like questions on the internet even if it's a search engine and that A.I. is on the rise and it doesn't matter that i am writing a question instead of proper keywords, to find out what castles were, where they originated and why they were built so i could formulate my own take of it. except, i still don't fully understand so we are going to be a little strategic about it and apply some of my own ideas/inspiration.

hopefully at the end of the day you'll see some screenshots below.

it's currently 5:41PM

update: it's 7:02Pm and it looks like, with our UPass, we hopped on the struggle bus, it looks like what happened last saturday except, i can't have a solid structure done




update @ 11:05AM 09/15:


update: it's 10:07, i just got off work, i think we're pulling an all nighter, i hope my PC could survive Rhino, if not... idk for now

it's 4 ish PM, i came from work and we're in the PC lab. i need divine intervention. maybe once i finish the "candle" i could pray for a better outcome. update: it's 7:53PM now in the pc lab and without thinking about aesthetics i think i'm able to arrive to what i wanted to execute without the final touches and not knowing how to setup the parameter for slicer but i'm happy i have an idea on how to get to where i want to be. i think the top part needs some rethinking because it might fail to print. see below. i keep adjusting the height of the candle and then i stopped and just focused on finishing to learn how to execute things. i have to strategically know when to cap lofted stuff because i won't be able to union the objects later on and also customize them with points on, and also when to subtract the shape of the "melted wax" to form the shape of the "missing candle". through some audioless youtube tutorials, i stuggled to find...

hello friend, last night, after a 6hr shift at work, i headed to campus and started working on my voxel. all i could think of (that stuck with me on my OBDF class' first meeting) was that the expectation on working on your school work in ones personal time. about 4hrs is expected because 4hrs = class time.  knowing my tendencies, i decided that i must train my brain to start making it into a habit. (and like in on itself is a timer for me to actually do my projects in the day and simultaneously not drown from being too invested in the creative practice) does this platform have line spacing for writing a post? anyway... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- hello again, it's 09/10/2024 and this post has been procrastinated we already shown it to class over the teams meeting (i was 15mins late, btw) but i haven't finish this entry. i have put up my voxel  screenshots above so i'll be going over some process screenshots b...

hello friend, this is one concept so far. will update soon. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- update (9/20 4ishPM): i think i know how to execute them?? just need a sixth concept. the screenshot from above is the candle but instead of the candle, i want the melted wax around to shape the nonexisted wax in the middle and hopefully support the top. also hoping i could execute it over the weekend and make it look a little better and closer to what i had in mind. i just remembered that they don't have to represent something so i think i'm just going to play with rhino for my sixth one, it just helps my brain breathe a little to have something down and not worry about ideas flying away update: i'm working on one of the concepts: i didn't save it and my computer is not cooperating 😭 i was able to recover it but i need some time away from this and start the other concepts
