Adios Chancellor! - Ben Brickley

From Robert-Depot
Jump to: navigation, search

Concept

The idea for this piece is to create a simple, interactive way to doodle on the face of our wonderful Chancellor, Ms. Marye Anne Fox. It will be a cartoonized picture of our beloved leader with a simple black background. When the user blows into the microphone, ink will appear wherever the mouse is.

Motivation

-All the shitty things that she has put myself and my classmates through in the past four years

-The fact that this is the last project that I will ever do under her domain
