getting ready to go

This presentation showed me just how close we are to leaving. It got me very excited to leave and also a little nervous with all the stuff I need to accomplished before we leave. I am so excited to experience everything that this trip has to offer me.

               In Switzerland I am most excited to visit the Basel school of art. This school has so much history as well as information on design that will help me further my graphic design skills. It will also show me how other schools are learning which will open my mind to new ways and techniques of design.

               In Austria I am most excited to see the Ars Electronica. It has all the new cutting edge technology and art and I think it will be very eye opening to see the advances that the art and technology world are making.

               In Germany I am very excited to see the Bauhaus. It will be very interesting to see the first design school and it will show me the history of what I am currently studying. It was also the birthplace of the teaching design students all forms of art in foundation courses before the higher level design classes. This way of teaching is replicated in most schools and I can’t wait to see the place of its origin.

               Over all I am very excited to experience Europe; both the new culture and all of the art and design information that we will be seeing. I think this trip will be a once in a life time experience and I will learn so much in the two weeks we are there.
