Center Up Stage (The Perfect Design)

Based on a design idea for the Minneapolis College Design Show, there is a strong Art Deco-influence to the design, which was our nod to the Roaring Twenties, a time (much like today) of innovation, imagination, boldness, ambition, modernity, and resilience (all of which are perfect descriptors of the human spirit, especially in the face of war, pandemics, poverty, hunger, and other problems we as a society face). It is important to remember the historical precedent of this resilience to truly understand and appreciate how we as a graduating class were able to perform like we were in a global pandemic, which is what my group had put forth in our theme, and what I express in this video.

Music is from one of my original compositions, "Salvia Stomp"/"Texturizer"
