For my grid project, I chose to recreate a picture of a palm tree at sunset. I used square pieces of paper and markers to recreate this image. Contrary to popular sunset images, this specific sunset showed a lot of dark tone colors like blue, dark purple, and black. I used markers that I had already had at home which is why some of the colors are not as exact as they should be. The original picture, once pixelated does not resemble a palm tree what so ever, which made it a bit challenging to recreate.

The shoes travel across town to pick up the female, and then they head to their favorite local restaurant, the pizza box.

They mastered the art of house music and truly understood what it meant to start the party. Their up-beat songs always make listeners want to get up and dance.  Daft Punk is a two-man duo that opened the door to the world of techno. The two released a few songs throughout the 90’s but really evolved the techno music world in the 2000’s. They received a Grammy award for their song” Harder, better, faster, stronger” in 2009. The use of technology is what transforms their music. The use of looping sounds and repeating the same beat create a unique type of sound. Technology allows them to overlay many different sounds and instruments at one time, which would normally need an entire band to create and play all at the same time. They also use auto-tu
