Ryan Glasgow My interests in art generally involve around design, specifically interface design, such as websites. I'm currently the Creative Director at Extrabux.com and designed the current website, as well as wrote the HTML/CSS. Other websites I've designed can be seen at RyanGlasgow.net/work. The reason I switched my major from Economics, to Media: Computing Emphasis is because I began to become more and more interested in design, and decided to pursue a career as a designer/entrepreneur.
Midterm Proposal
My Midterm proposal is a pendulum switch. The switch is a wooden frame, with a wire hanging down the middle that swings a metal soda can. The soda can is manually swung, and if it reaches a certain height in either direction it touches the aluminum foil contact pads. If the circuit is completed on the left side, a lightbulb will illuminate a YES sign. If the circuit is completed on the right side, a NO sign will illuminate.
The system represents a coin that is often flipped to make decisions. The result of a coin flip can be rigged by the human if he or she is skilled, which is the artistic statement of my work.
