Attention Digital Media and Art students! Let's start an AIGA student chapter at Greenville College. Why? AIGA has been advocating for the value of design (and more recently other areas of digital media) since 1914. Most employers in the industry belong to a professional chapter of AIGA or have at least heard of the organization so being a student member is a great resume perk! An AIGA student chapter will help create a digital media culture on campus. Through AIGA we can have guest speakers, portfolio reviews, attend digital media / design related conferences, go on field trips, host design / multimedia contests, show our work to the GC community and beyond, conduct social issue campaigns on campus, design for non profits, network with professionals, and host social events relating to digital media to name a few. Your AIGA membership will provide you with free books and other resources related to the industry, a space online to post your portfolio, access to job postings, and discounts to many online resources. I am passionate about AIGA and I hope you share my excitement and start a Greenville College AIGA student chapter.

LOL OMG ... and other contemporary psalms - by Jacob Amundson
 |
In order to receive a Masters degree in Fine Arts at his graduation ceremony Friday, Azusa Pacific University student Jacob Amundson first had to live in a bird cage on the front lawn of campus for 18 hours. "The bird cage was fun," Amundson, 33 , said. "It's kind of a way for me to interact with the sculptures." It is one of several displays he has created for his thesis exhibition, called "LOL OMG ... and other contemporary psalms," which will conclude today and is open from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. "The audience I wanted to reach was everybody because my work is about everyday experiences," Amundson, 33, said. "It's using the mundane to connect people to art and that may be the catalyst to connect them to larger issues." Read more: http://www.sgvtribune.com/ci_15624105#ixzz0vZtHYUMe |
