Ruby Hadley: Paper Valleys

Many of us were introduced to Ruby's paper folding prowess at her origami workshop last semester, but hyperbolic parabolas are child's play for the nimble-fingered Hadley. Check out some of her ridiculously complicated looking works on her blog, Paper Valleys.

Also, check out a consolidated list of blogs on the student blog directory (which has taken the shape of a separate page to prevent that sidebar from getting too messy). Let me know if I missed your blog!

Scotiabank's CONTACT photography festival is happening this weekend in Toronto. If you can't make it, their site has profiles of all their featured artists. Pieter Hugo's work in Ghana happened to catch my eye, his images are really quite compelling and tell the grim tale of the effects of obsolescence in developing countries. Check out his gallery and other works here.

Featured CIDSA Blogger: Anthony Keeler


Where: New York City
Why: Internship with a small Manhattan firm
Duration: Four months

Live vicariously through Tony as he keeps us in touch with one of the biggest art and design hubs in North America. Hear first hand what a summer in the Big Apple is like for an aspiring industrial designer as he explores the city's art galleries, museums, and design studios. Look forward to updates from Tony after his internship starts in May -- we wish him the best of luck!

C-C-Changes

Peace out: orange tiles, unfinished stools, and terrible studio lighting. More pictures after the jump!
