The greatest and most known quotes known to the audience. ” With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibilities.” The story goes with a teenage nerdy boy whose life changedrastically when he was bitten by a radioactive spider thus allowing him to possess an ability no man has ever possessed. However, with his new spider powers, there always come the consequences. One major turning point was the death of his uncle that kept haunting him, and leaving the most famous quote that defined his existence.  Despite what Marvel and the movies would have us believe, this epic and powerful quote does not come from a Hollywood script writing team but from the revolutionary quote and literary in the 19th century France. The first literary record of this can be attributed to Francois-Marie Arouet aka Voltaire. Voltaire was disturbed by the sickening abuse of authority and privilege by those in power whilst the poor and deprived starved and suffered around him. Much of Voltaire’s work reflects on this theme, however it was in “Œuvres de Voltaire, Volume 48″ that we first hear the direct use of this phrase. Of course in Spiderman’s case, it was quote that was directed at those who Voltaire believed to be wicked, corrupt and everything that was rotten in France at the time.

The design above represents one of Shakespeare’s famous quotes. The quote means that there is more to life than what we fantasizes in our dreams. The design is meant to show a ghost or an entity dancing on the plains of the grasslands showing that people should not avoid the wonders the earth has to offer to the newcomers of the world. Life may have its consequences, but there are some things in life that is beauty that we as individuals have yet to uncover.Life is a gift and it is the only one we will ever have. People need to explore the mysteries of the world and see its beauty.

One of Gandhi’s quotes that have existed to this day. The design is meant to display a person that undergoes a violent event that most people goes through to this very day. The violent action happen almost everyday and we are not aware of the hardships that each person went through. The quote also demonstrate how violent wars and fights can be that we, the people are blinded by our rage. Gandhi’s approach to violence was not of violence but solving the manner peacefully by not fighting back. Easier said than done some people might say but to the well minded people, we must see through the hearts of individuals and approach them.

They each display a pattern of the office with its color textures and gorgeous scenes about the stadium within the horizon caught my attention on the brightness of the sun shining on the horizon. The image then leads to the nuerons in the brain and how each neuron is a repetition of an art and the artist display the light neurons on our head that are carried by protein and each light shows electrical circuits transporting data in a millisecond of time.

The results were staggering and the display was beautiful that each bottle of the exploded soda shooting up shows different textures and textures each bottle displays.

In today’s field trip at the AIGA, I saw the first design of the invitation of the first AIGA meeting that was for only rich white people who afforded a 1000 to pay for the program, in which case, in today’s AIGA, it only costs 50 dollars to enter (thank goodness for that.). I got to see the graphic of books of the designs of different people like the artist who created the art of Superman icons in the 1800’s and many interesting concepts like the portfolios, and the designs of the Honor wall really caught my attention. The one important lessons that the guide told us is that the art and designs that each graphic artists make expresses mood and character. The key concept of graphic design is to express a person’s mood and that is what each individual artists demonstrated in the cups while in the offices of the graphic designers. The trip was astounding and allowed me to get a better picture of what graphic designing really is. I still am concerned about the whole idea of the election papers being designed in a way Bush would win for presidency. Was it meant to confuse us or let him win on purpose. Who knows? But either way, It does not discourage the fact of my interests in graphic designing. The trip held interesting artwork and the books recording to the time of designs and its structures. The chicken without the head was kinda disturbing to me and catches my attention due to the fact that there are things in life that makes us not keep the head of the game and stay focus through our personal goals in life. 

The picture of the headless chicken displays a shock to me, and it left me to question what does it mean. The artist display a good representation of an art that shocks people and leaves them to question

The trip to the Letterpress was an astonishing experience because there was an old printing press that displayed a style of crafting ink on paper. In history class, my professor mentioned that older technologies determine newer technologies and that theory contributes to the print press. In the letterpress, I was able to use the printing press and print ink on paper. I was nervous that the printing press may clobber may hand, but I got over my fear and the experience was proved astonishing. Without the invention of the printing press, society would have a hard time writing books and it would take months or years to complete a book.
