This is my rendering of the Typology project from my Digital Media class. Although I have never done anything like this before, I really enjoyed it. I owe most of the easy process to my professor who provided helpful videos to guide us. These videos made everything about this project simpler and more enjoyable. When I first saw the project, I was worried. I had no idea where I could find 16 similar, yet different in their own way, objects. I used my boyfriend to help me brainstorm and after he gave me a few ideas like coffee mugs, shoes, and cards I was struck by an idea. Earrings. I wear them every day because it is the only way for me to 'spruce up' my outfit due to work. Which is surrounded by dirt, cars, men, and cursing. Sounds like the perfect place to wear my nice blouse right? Unfortunately I have to wear jeans, a T-shirt, tennis shoes, and have my hair in a ponytail constantly. It is very bland and there aren't many ways to change it up. With earrings I can and I feel very naked when I forget them on occasion.
Pictures exceed at describing something that is too indescribable for words. Of course there are ways words can shed light onto subjects but a picture has a certain way with creating a physical connection to the subject matter. It is easy to say that Alice fell down a rabbit hole filled with a list of things with a list of colors. A step further, a picture can show how Alice LOOKED as she fell instead of how she felt while falling. Words are great but a picture adds a new perspective.

Typology for Earrings
