Hi! Many of you know me already, but my name is Miles. I like digital fabrication, compsci, carpentry, and art. I have a lot of work I want to do for my thesis.
This kind of means I might be a bit rude to Warren and Ault.
I am so so sorry in advance. However, I took 280. I actually rewrote the syllabus because I had a horrible semester [link]. Despite this, Warren is one of my favorite professors and I think he’s a wonderful person. His tangents are interesting, soothing, and make me feel better about life, but they don’t help me make my thesis.
Every time thesis gets anywhere close to 280, I am going to interrupt class. I don’t know exactly where I am going to go with my interruptions, but my goal is to help everyone be on track. If there is anything you hope to discuss, please let me know so I can bring it up.
I’m a person who needs very clear direction, achievable goals, and social pressure to get things done. I’m a big fan of “finished and unpolished is better than unfinished and unpolished” and I really want a finished and polished project.
My main goals for thesis discussions are to talk about progress, concepts, and execution. So I am going to try and ask other people where they are, what they are thinking of, and how it is developing! And again, suggest something that you need, and I can focus on bringing that up.
