Tonight I graduate from Drexel University (for the second time, but this time is the last and final time). I can’t believe its finally over. Its been a good five years though - I met some of my best friends here and had some amazing times. I worked really hard to get to where I am and it shows. I’m so proud of what I’ve accomplished, especially with my thesis. In fact, working on my thesis this past year has got me thinking that I might want to continue doing it as a profession. I’m planning on checking out the performances at SIGGRAPH this year and volunteering at the Philly Fringe Festival.

My paper got approved by my committee and was submitted to the Drexel University Library to be bound and archived. Download the final document (30 MB).

This weekend my thesis was performed at the Drexel Dance Ensemble Spring Concert “Moving Forward” in Mandell Theater. The piece went off without a hitch and was well received by the audience. In fact, one special guest that made it to the performance was author, Edward Tenner, who wrote “Why Things Bite Back,” a book that directly influenced the concept of my piece. Check out some of the pictures from the performance; I hope to have the video up soon.
