Designing My Future RECENT Projects

Cartographic Work In the Year 2018

  In my Last Semester of Hunter College there was a lot of confusion as to what I would be doing the next 45 years of my life. But I found Geographic Information Science (G.I.S) and it has sparked a passion for Cartography. Obtaining a bachelors of arts from CUNY Hunter College was a small step compared to what would come next. With only two classes of GIS under my experience I approached a Director of G.I.S and understood what I had to do in order to do my part in obtaining the Masters degree in science. Now this semester is almost over. Fall 2018 Im not sure if I will pass the courses but I enjoy the work I was able to develop in my time as a student. Im realizing that Im doing more Visual design work in assignments than actual cartography. To jump from a degree in social/Quantitative/Qualitative research to a science is something unexpected. I'm embracing this opportunity and now searching for a Job.

GIS In Urban Planning

   GIS, Geographic information system. The world is being visualized and designed in different projections across the world using GIS. Fellow bloggers, designers, and artists, computer programmers need our help designing a virtual world. I'm here writing this blog at Hunter college in my last semester with a major breakthrough. 

   Technology will make our lives easier, how much longer do we have to wait in order for us to realize that. I'm not asking that we throw away our lifestyle but that we embrace technology through any means necessary. GIS is one of those technology that we should embrace. If you live in the city, you are constantly engaging with GIS. The reason is because GIS is a software used by everyone with data. It is not easy to provide evidence to the public, evidence that shows how information is free and powerful. 

   Data can be found on your cellphone, car GPS, and even through work information. Public information is different from Private information. As technology evolves we become immune to having too little of one or the other if we do not act now. Net neutrality has been recently fiddled with here in the U.S, while some states still fight for the freedom of accessibility to public and private data. 

   GIS is a powerful tool that will take humanity to places they never discovered from their phone. Google Earth is a web-based map projection of the earth that shows 3D models of cities using satellite images, sensors, as well as computer coding. This software has been upgraded as of recent and implore everyone to try it out. 

   If you enjoy history, Computer design, and public relations Urban Studies is the right place for you. I joined this program in the city because I was not sure how I could fit into hunter. Urban studies showed me to embrace the most important fact, Technology is bring us closer together unlike anything before. If you have a gift to draw then design something, If you can calculate then problem solve, and if you write then organize thoughts. This is how we can design communication to be clear, pristine, and translucent.

Reunion

   This post is to let my readers know that I'll be transforming this Blog. This blog will have all of my art work that I have done over the last three years and research conducted. Everything here is available for the public to only observe. As a certified CUNY researcher of the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative at the University of Miami, I intend on assisting those who are studying an objective. Furthermore I look forward to conducting research and practicing my skills in the arts and posting my accomplishments to inspire. Currently enrolled at Hunter College perusing Urban Design, my eyes have opened through a new form of intelligence. Design is a form of intelligence, without design there is no form, there is no expression. Lets see how this goes! urban design and architecture combined.

Respectively,

Career and college Reflection

Career and College Reflection 

                    During this assignment I was asked to Reflect on what are my plans for the future. In this task were we did a questionnaire on what we plan to do with our lives. This task had  asked us what options we had in mind for college knowing the colleges that we wanted to go to, we needed to know if  they the right ones for us. So to help us find that out we were given a GPA converter helping us narrow our decisions. The purpose of this was to do that exact same thing narrow down our choices to the right college to help achieve our goal. 

                    The GPA is grade point average of all the four years in high school. This GPA is scaled numerically on a scale from 65-100 for high schools while in Colleges its a 1.0-4.0 . So when we converted our grades to the schools required GPA we would later find out if this was the school for us. 

So the questionnaire for what school will be our first choice was easier to find with this converter. But then we also Had to make sure we mentioned our SAT scores.

                   When Colleges look at the SAT scores they compare it to their overall accepted percentile with the same range of scores. Meaning that if the majority of there schools accepted SAT score is 2400 then y]the only accepted score is 2400. Unless the school has more sets of percentiles meaning that accept lower scores. I learned that because of my creativity the will to work hard I will make sure that nothing stops me from being an architect. This passion, ardor for architecture has driven me to the next level and I am more than willing to get there.  

                 Im interested in doing architecture for sure, and this is my primary goal until I cannot no more. The Three colleges I am interested in applying to is NYIT, CCNY, and Hostoss community college. These are my three choices because at the moment they would be more convenient for me economically wise and having a roof over my head in the city. Architecture is the place I want to be for the rest of my life I have researched it and I'm understanding what it is that has to be done to become an architect. My applications are sent out and ready to go all I can do now is hope for the best.

Identity Poster

THE POSTER PROJECT REFLECTIVE ESSAY

     

              Ernesto Llorente                            The poster Project reflective essay   
              11-20-12  


              In this project we had to incorporate all of the symbols putting it on a poster. This poster had been created to express who we are and what it is we like to do. The ideas I learned about during this project had been being intuitive and innovative. the materials i have used in this project had been many, one of my favorite had been the merge tool and select tool. I have used these tools to bring objects together and to take objects apart.

        I also learned in this project the proper use of color and making everything monochromatic. This poster I have been creating had to have the same color as my symbols because if not then the  poster will look like a painting of an angry artist. So first I took all of my Projects Previous to this project and had to develop an idea of how to create a poster reflecting me. At first I had no Idea of how I wanted to structure my poster, but when I asked for some advise I found a better way to express myself.

     This poster is exactly what I like and of who I am. I really like this project and it is the reflecting me 100%. The human tool and my animal symbol are the two of my favorite and they worked out the best. The reason is because they accentuate my inner being and on the poster those are the symbols that pop out the most. I would have changed my letters though so that they could have fit in the poster more comfortable instead of having them squished up together. The only elements I would change is the Letters because its not the best quality project I made.  

        I feel very happy with this assignment I believe that this was my best assignment yet. I learned that incorporating all the little things already made to create something as creative as this was worth the time. I learned how to structure my work keep things organized but at the same time neat elegant and meaningful. During this project I had learned that the elements being used for an idea should be apart of that one idea and nothing else. For example my idea for a project would be about my favorite animal, an eagle. Then I make a Poster about an eagle not lions and how the eagle gets eaten by the lion or whatever. I learned about myself during this project had been the things I like to do and who I truly am.  This project was a bit simply the only problem I had is  sorting the symbols in a reasonable area  according to my poem.
