Average of ten CD cases

Average of ten design/art students I know

Response to "Faces, Faces Everywhere"

I found it rather interesting that there are about 12 "relationships" between facial features that that cause us to recognize something as a "face."

Response to "I Use This"

Hello, my name is Hannah. I'm a sophomore at ASU and a first year in the Graphic Design program.

Hardware
  • That really depends on what I'm doing. My main computer is the new aluminum 13in MacBook (2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 2 GB of RAM, still running Leopard), and I use it for writing, homework, web browsing, etc. When I'm working on artwork or design stuff, I use the Windows portion of my Dell Inspiron 530 (2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 2 GB of RAM, running Simply Mepis 7 and XP) because I only have Windows versions of Photoshop, AI, and InDesign. Unfortunately, I haven't used the Linux part of my computer in several months.
Software
  • I mainly use OpenOffice (word processing), Firefox, ical, itunes, Photoshop, AI, InDesign, Audacity, and Garageband. I use Gmail through Firefox for my email, and I use Safari on my itouch.
Cell phone
  • Blitz, from Verizon.
Pencil
  • Mostly any mechanical .5mm pencil. For art/design I use Derwent sketching pencils.
Websites
  • Gmail, ASU, Blackboard, Facebook, and Amazon are the ones I use the most.
