Assignment 04
Repetition
You’re tasked to create a series by doing something every weekday over the course of four weeks. The end result will be a collection of 20 pieces. Their form factor is up to you. There must be a record or documentation of your task for every day.
When selecting your task look through your blog. Try to find something that you’re interested in. You’ll be doing this for four weeks, so try to pick something that you’ll be excited about doing every day. It shouldn’t be time intensive or a burden.
You must document what you make or do on Tumblr. You’re accountable for updating daily thanks to time stamps and other metadata associated with the post. You’ll have weekends off, so if you miss one day of the week you can make your task up on the weekend. Don’t do these in bulk. Do something daily, reflect on it, do it again.

Blog Documentation
Start a tumblr blog specifically for this assignment. Do not design your blog. Use the Ashley theme.
Repetition Presentation
Tuesday 11.15.16 you'll show us your blog and the progress you’ve made in two weeks. Make a simple PDF presentation of where the idea came from, try to map how the idea originated and how you’ve developed a system or how things are progressing. Show some behind the scenes documentation of how you’re doing whatever you’re doing. Spend less time designing your presentation slides and more time researching and making connections.
