Three Philosophers

Three Philosophers

The author of this article had been invited by one of his colleagues to join him in setting up a booth at the entrance of a subway station in New York.  I enjoyed this article because it was interesting to know the types of questions that people wanted to ask. It was revealed that there are many people who are not sure about what they should start doing with their lives. In this article the philosophers explored what it is that gives life meaning, what we can do to make ourselves happy, and other ideas about human nature. I recommend this article because of it’s interesting topic, and because it was fun to read.

 

Desmos Art Functions Card 2018

Working on this project was a good way to review what we have worked on during the semester. I started the card by graphing a pineapple, because I really wanted there to be a pineapple on the card. i then made a plan for what the rest of the card would look like, and started thinking about what kind of functions should be used for each shape. When I couldn’t get the shape of a line right, I started experimenting with different stretches until I could get the shape I was looking for. I had a problem while shading, I wanted a colour that wasn’t an option in desmos, then I found out that I could layer the different colours on top of each other to get what I wanted. This assignment helped me review what we have worked on earlier in the semester, and it has helped me find out what I should start reviewing for the finals.
