A Comparison of Meansort and Quicksort

Description: The main purpose of this project is to compare a new sorting method- Meansort with its preceding sorting method- Quicksort.

Experiments proved that in some ways Meansort is superior to Quicksort but is still not perfect since it always needs a mean value for each key. This project implements these two methods and determines the situations under which each of these methods outperfor… more

Selected Objects and Their Effectiveness as Fired Decorative Additions

Description: It was the intention of this project to test selected objects to determine which ones could be used for decoration. If an object became a stable, aesthetically pleasing, part of the glazed piece, then it was considered successful. Two firing temperatures are important to my work; they are 1796 degrees Fahrenheit, oxidation (which is cone 06), and 2372 degrees Fahrenheit, reduction (which is cone 10). I expected some of these objects I chose to work better at the lower temperature, and some to … more

Strength of Fragility and its Relationship to My Sculpture

Description: For this project, I explored traditions and relationships of materials both past and present: oriental kites and their linear structures and materials (fragile yet able to fly the strongest winds), Japanese washi (materials and hand processes), Eskimo gut work (sails and parkas). My interest has been in pushing these relationships further and exploring three-dimensional space with my linear panels.
