well, now that I've had a while to cool off from project 2, I think it's a good time to talk about it a little. The whole thing was a bit strange to me, to be honest. First off, for some reason I have the due dates of most of the assignments about a week early, so I finished project 2 in an almighty rush, then came to class and found out I hadn't needed to. When I looked at the requirements for the project, I realized that it didn't matter so much that I didn't include motion gifs or CSS elements either; so I decided not to fix what isn't broken, and keep it as is.
I think the strongest element of my version of Project 2 is the way that it stays true to the overarching goal. It's not very flashy, but every page does what it can to try to 'transcend reality'. I think I really had a leg up here in that almost every photo or piece of poetry was written by me. The only pieces not done by me were written by friends who I actually know. As a result of that, I think the overall flow from one piece to the next is more meaningful. Moreover, I think that the theme I incorporated, 'A walk from darkness into light' adds a deeper dimension. Rather than being a scattershot of different prisms of life, there is an overall movement to the website.
