The linguistics poster project is officially over. We spent almost all day yesterday putting the poster together...several adventures ensued:
1. A really scary trip to Target in Ethan's car...FYI: Ethan's car is really scary. It feels like its going
to fall apart and it is very wiggly. After we were driving for a while, Anton told me that the breaks don't work very well. It was very snowy and icy...I was scared for my life. And there was barely any gas in the car at all...but we made it their and back.
2. Fun items for the poster included: letter
shaped sponges...a pack of paintbrushes...a set of paints...a large poster board...instead of actually working on the poster, me and Anton painted two abstract paintings together and all three of us constructed several sculptures out of the letter shaped sponges. This is more difficult than it sounds since the sponges are very staticly charged and have a tendency to fly off of the table (or sculpture without warning)
3. Anton's mom called about five times while trying to plan a trip to the Hague.
4. Actually constructing the poster...I got to paint the paint onto each of the sponge letters while Anton placed them on the board and Ian washed them off in the sink...I think I got the most fun job. There was only one pair of scissors so cutting was a very tedious process. The poster was
completed by 4:30am...
5. CREATE LIKE CRAZY!!!!!!!! (brand name of the art supplies that we bought at Target)
6. Actually poster presentation went very well!!!! It turns out that our professor is actually working on the EXACT SMAE PROJECT! She was very impressed with what we did and said she would probably contact us...I think she was also amazed since we wrote out a bunch of the sentences with musical examples...and she didn't read music...so it must have looked cool. Everyone was very impressed with our poster (for some reason). I am surprised we got away with it since we didn't really do any research and barely did any work.
7. When we lost the sound of a native Korean speaker...instead of writing down what she actually said, we substituted names of Koreans from around school...there was definitely the phrase Don-a Yoo De-o.
Time for recitals and rehearsals...GOOD LUCK TO ALISON!!!!!!!
