Homework

• Come up with three directions for your Maxims project and begin an are.na channel for each one. The are.na channels should be titled by the concept name, have a brief description of the direction and how it relates to the project, a few visual references that bring the idea to life, and a couple examples of how you’ll depict your Maxims online. Begin programming your website based on your favorite direction (just get starting laying things out). We will work on this in class next week and it will be due on 03/07.
