The particles consist of randomized R, G, and B, creating a rainbow effect that is different every time the software is run. <img src="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/1738931/Screen shot 2011-07-17 at 12.30.29 AM.png" width="604" height="467" width_o="604" height_o="467" src_o="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/1738931/Screen shot 2011-07-17 at 12.30.29 AM_o.png" data-mid="8552624" border="0" align="left" data-title="670 (604) — 604 × 467"/> Creative Director: Matthew Manos Printing: Irvine Printing Software: Aart Rost of Open Processing Thanks: Justin Williams <img src="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/1738931/break_1400.jpg" width="670" height="16" width_o="1200" height_o="29" src_o="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/1738931/break_1400_o.jpg" data-mid="9415548" border="0" align="left" data-title="670 — 670 × 16"data-hi-res="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/1738931/break_1400_o.jpg" /> HRC seeks to improve the lives of LGBT Americans by advocating for equal rights and benefits in the workplace, ensuring families are treated equally under the law...

The show invited many media artists, filmmakers, architects, and photographers to show their work and speak about the human body and its transformations. The pieces in the show ranged from street projections to fashion design. I wanted the website to reflect the darkness of the show, as well as the feeling one may have while inside the human body. My personal favorite feature on the website is one that may never seen, one of the bubbles on the home page is actually a secret button that leads to a blog I set up for Stefanie. The blog consists of personal posts and reflections based off of the show. <img src="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388912/website1.jpg" width="600" height="400" width_o="600" height_o="400" src_o="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388912/website1_o.jpg" data-mid="17422249" border="0" align="left" data-title="670 (600) — 600 × 400"/><img src="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388912/website2.jpg" width="600" height="400" width_o="600" height_o="400" src_o="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388912/website2_o.jpg" data-mid="17422251" border="0" align="left" data-title="670 (600) — 600 × 400"/><img src="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388912/website3.jpg" width="600" height="400" width_o="600" height_o="400" src_o="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388912/website3_o.jpg" data-mid="17422253" border="0" align="left" data-title="670 (600) — 600 × 400"/><img src="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388912/website4.jpg" width="600" height="400" width_o="600" height_o="400" src_o="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388912/website4_o.jpg" data-mid="17422255" border="0" align="left" data-title="670 (600) — 600 × 400"/> Body Art Disease was a media art show and lecture series curated by Stefanie Adcock.

Through donations, we purchase various supplies designed to make the soldiers more comfortable and provide them with a taste of home. In an effort to serve ALL of our soldiers’ needs, we ask the unit how many female soldiers they have and are careful to include items geared toward them as well as the men. These generic items commonly include: socks, baby wipes, sports bras, snacks, movies, music, personal care items, etc. As a special ‘thank you’ to each, individual soldier, we ask that they each request a single item that specifically reminds them of home. These special requests often include: regionally specific foods (TastyKakes, Zatarain’s, Zapps, etc), specific books or magazines, specific articles of clothing, etc. The organization approached us to create a poster series and identity collateral for the organization's upcoming fundraising event. <img src="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388814/Screen shot 2012-05-12 at 10.03.09 AM.png" width="502" height="670" width_o="502" height_o="670" src_o="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388814/Screen shot 2012-05-12 at 10.03.09 AM_o.png" data-mid="17435331" border="0" align="left" data-title="670 (502) — 502 × 670"/><img src="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388814/Screen shot 2012-05-12 at 10.03.22 AM.png" width="503" height="670" width_o="503" height_o="670" src_o="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388814/Screen shot 2012-05-12 at 10.03.22 AM_o.png" data-mid="17435332" border="0" align="left" data-title="670 (503) — 503 × 670"/><img src="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388814/Screen shot 2012-05-12 at 10.02.52 AM.png" width="501" height="668" width_o="501" height_o="668" src_o="https://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/13270/3388814/Screen shot 2012-05-12 at 10.02.52 AM_o.png" data-mid="17435328" border="0" align="left" data-title="670 (501) — 501 × 668"/> Adopt a Unit is a non-profit organization in New Orleans, LA that chooses one military Unit (currently serving overseas) to "Adopt" at a time.
