A basic 2D art class, a darkroom photography class, a film literature class for which I made 3 short films, and an information technology class for which I made a networked digital clock. I consider many of my DIY projects to be combinations of art and functionality. The clock was programmed in C on a Raspberry PI and used shift registers as well as a custom 7 segment display.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-36\" src=\"http:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-d18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/03\/2.3-Clock-Finished-800x604.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"604\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-d18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/03\/2.3-Clock-Finished-800x604.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-d18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/03\/2.3-Clock-Finished-768x580.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-d18\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2018\/03\/2.3-Clock-Finished-1024x774.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>My experience with programming, electronics, or other tech<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"paragraph\">\n<div class=\"public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">I am a robotics engineering major with many years of experience in designing and building artistic inputs and outputs for computer processes.

I think one of the most underappreciated forms of art are the aesthetic choices that go into engineering prototypes .<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Recent creative projects I am proud of include my work in Interactive Electronic Art during B-Term. A link to my portfolio from that class can be seen below. For my final project <em style=\"font-size: 1rem\">Helmet Vision<\/em><span style=\"font-size: 1rem\"> the helmet device is a metaphor for our use of technology and how it distracts and clouds our vision of thing in our immediate surroundings. The device both enables you and hinders you from knowing special information about where you are. In this way is acts as a stand in for the cell phones that tell us extra information about our world but also prevent us from knowing other information.
