As far as my experience with art making I never really worked on any art projects individually before college but was something I wanted to explore. At WPI I have taken courses in digital art, which intrigued me because of my interests in technology.\u00a0As an ECE major I have had some experience with programming and electronics. In particular I have programming experience in C, java, and python. In addition, I have used an Arduino a couple times before so I have done some programming with that.<\/p>\n<p>Below I have attached an image from one of my most recent projects and a video of a second one. The first one is a 3D character model of Jordan Spieth, who is a professional golfer, and the second one is a short animation of the &#8220;Who&#8217;s on First?&#8221; comedy skit by Abbott and Costello.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-188 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-d18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/03\/spieth.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"888\" height=\"1265\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-d18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/03\/spieth.jpg 888w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-d18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/03\/spieth-562x800.jpg 562w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-d18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/03\/spieth-768x1094.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-d18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/03\/spieth-719x1024.jpg 719w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The video below is a project I completed at WPI in Animation 1.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"tmscaplen AR2201 final project\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eYcFPiKeWKo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Outside of school I enjoy athletics, outdoor games such as Frisbee and Spikeball, and listening to music.
