Making lampback ink 2/7
Making lampback ink 2/7
Today we made lampblack ink. The procces began with us burning the surface of a spoon in order to create the soot, this went on for more than 5 mins. After this we scrapped it into a small cup and mixed alcohol and gun Arabic powder. Lastly we mixed it together and tested it on a piece of paper. It worked because we were able to mix the different things correctly and didn't overdue or under due anything.
Augusta Savage 2/3
Augusta Savage 2/3
Augusta Savage's art typically consisted of a black sculptures of various different types of people like children, older people, an many other types of sculptures. She also wrote poetry. The materials she used had the color to represent black skin or she painted it them to have the image of black skin. I believed her work was very realistic looking and nice, I also think that she sculpted the people around her in Harlem which was a very black part of New York city.
One particular work of art she created that stood out to me was the Gamin. The Gamin was a sculpture of young black boy with a hat on. The reason it stood out was because how realistic the African American features were and how much detail you could tell went into the sculpture. I think it just represents the people she lived around in Harlem and to give recognition to black artist. My opinion is that it was a very nice and timeless sculpture and as a artist she was out of this world.
Cubist Geometry Drawing Assignment
Cubist Geometry Drawing Assignment
I drew a face of a woman. Cubism changed the way my object looks by kind of distorting her face and hiding it. The easiest shapes to use were the cube and the triangle. These were the easiest because incorporating them into other shapes was easy. The hardest shape to use was the cone, mainly due to the fact that the bottom is circular and connecting it to other shapes were more difficult. Geometry changes the way I think about art by adding abstraction and symmetry which can be used to make a art piece more unique and abstract/contemporary
Recycled paper making 1/27
Recycled paper making 1/27
We used recycled paper and ripped it up small enough to go into a blender which made it into pulp. We scooped up the pulp with a strainer and flipped it for it to dry. it relates to chemistry by facilitating the breakdown of wood pulp into individual cellulose fibers through chemical processes and the process itself is creative, allowing artists to manipulate the texture, color, and inclusions within the paper
Chinese painting 1/24
Chinese painting 1/24
We used a Chinese brush and ink and used a dab method to create a scene with the ink that represented perspective
Heart shaped basket 1/8
Heart shaped basket 1/8
First we had to pick two colors to make a heart and by making two arches with slits in them and insert it into the other one and weaving them together to create a heart. This is art.
weaving and bonding 1/6
weaving and bonding 1/6
To showcase ionic bonds between elements me and a partner used weaving. First we picked opposite colors and I did orange dark blue and green. She chose light blue, purple and yellow. With these colors we represented opposites and ionic bonds because opposites that attract. lastly We weaved the paper with the colors in order of their opposite.
What does physics have to do with my robot? What are the two main factors?
What does physics have to do with my robot? What are the two main factors?
Physics affects our robots in a number of different ways. These include friction, which controls the traction or grippyness of the robot to the ground this determines how well it moves it different terrain. Kinetic friction which is the force that slows the robot down when two or more surfaces are in contact and moving relative to each other. Next, static friction is the force that would keep my standing still when its not in motion, this means the terrain its on ca determine how sturdy or how well the robot can stay in one place. Mass affects the weight of the robot, this also determines how fast the robot can go based on how heavy it is. The coefficient of friction is how much friction is between two surfaces and with out robots it would be the ground and the wheels.
Script writing 9/5
Script writing 9/5
9/9 We continued writing our script and we got through scenes 1 ,2 and most of 3. We added a new character that adds more ations to the story and conflict. We are still currently done with the climax and starting the falling action.
Script writing 9/9 : today we started to write our last scene where falling actions and resolution take place. We have almost finished with the script and our in the final stages before filming

Feedback sheet 9/13
Today we did a table read, which meant we read our scripts at a table and everyone listened and gave feedback. We got feedback and figured out that our narration were not detailed enough so made changes to it so that it sounds better.

what does physics have to do with my ultrasonic sensor. First is the audible hearing range, this is connected to physics because of wave detection which detects the reflected waves and uses them to determine the distance and direction of the object. Next is hardware, is some situations a ultrasound sensor can detect better than a radar in some cases such as clear plastic and they are unaffected by the color of the material their sensing. The trigger pin is used to trigger the ultrasonic sound pulses, echo pin produces pulse when signal is received. next is the speed of town by knowing the speed of sound in the medium, it can calculate the distance based on the time elapsed, essentially using the formula: distance = speed of sound x time. The sensors are able to detect things in certain area without contact on the basis of ultrasonic waves, speed of sound si how fast the waves move though a medium
Mandela 9/23
Mandela 9/23
Mandela is used in multiple ways including focusing the mind in meditation, teach people in religious training, and guide a meditating to spiritual healing and enlightenment. It is related to world civilizations because it created by the second most practiced religion. I see variety, patterns and repetition in Mandela's. The circular shape of a mandela can be used to show a nucleus and use different color and patterns around it represent electrons with colors and shape to represent different energy levels
Study.com and the google AI
10/2/2024: Today we recorded for our shaping the world project and we finished the actual filming part but we still have to finish editing and putting the video together to see what it will look, then we will make any necessary changed.
Electron mandala's
Electron mandala's
I will work in a group to create mandala designs based on atomic electron configurations. We will use color mixing techniques and color theory to create an personalized color palette and include background information that we have learned about the history of mandalas’ use in world religions. I think mandela's show up in different cultures because they can represent the arts, religion and or practices that a people might take part in, which is shown through mandela’s. We adapted mandela's by mixing religions and chemistry. Some symbols we incorporated in our project were religious symbols like Muslim, christians, Hindu, along with the chemical symbol for silicon. A few ways it shows the principles of design are the patterns, variety of colors, balance and unity to put it all together. Some things that went well were the color correlation of each side, one thing that had to be fixed was the variety of patterns we had to add to some of the rings on ou madela.
Its Elementary
Its Elementary
For this project we were given a element from the periodic table and we were tasked with researching the uses and the different things our element does. I had a few options for this and I chose fireworks, this is because My element is rubidium and one of its uses was to to make fireworks have their purple color. So I decided to make a mountainous terrain at night with a few purple fireworks in the air with some extra things to make it look interesting. It has mountains, a moon, trees, a road and more to give it perspective. I used patterns and variety when making this project. This project wasn't hard you just had to creative and use the skills we wee taught. If we did this again I would most likely do an explosions' with a red background and some other aspects, this is because rubidium is a very reactive metal.
Periodic table Art 10/25
Periodic table Art 10/25
In this project we picked an element off of the periodic table and were tasked to create artwork with this element, whether it was its use, what it looks, or its creator. It had to include element symbol, name, atomic number. In this project I used STEAM by combining science, arts and mathematics with an element from Chemistry, using the principles of art to create a drawing, and using the number involved in chemistry for math. I learned to use creativity to create something new and connected to my element. I was creative by taking one of the uses of my element ruthenium and trying to make an image of it and including the requirered information. My artwork is a solar cell field with mountains with a back round and the sun to represent that it works and to create space and value. Some principles of design that were important are rhythm, balance and variety to make it look more professional and to represent the space in the drawing for the scenery.
Food for thought slides 12/18
Food for thought slides 12/18
We made pottery that was connected to the Columbian exchange like a plate with Spanish patterns on the top, a bowl that represents the earth with its color, a cup that represents the water, moon spoon and sun fork.

8/19
We were tasked with creating a digital image of the word Chemvas by digitally collaging and/or digitally painting and drawing. Next i learned how to use sketch pad website and learned how to use it's different tools to to make this drawing easier. Using the elements of art, my project includes colors, textures, variety, rhythm, and lines. My project has different objects patterns and shapes to create the word chemvas. What I dislike about the assignment was having to find all the different shapes and objects and put them together to make a letter. In the future i could use these tools to create words and art for an assignment or for fun.
