Mauro-  Your buildings are so intricate!! I love the detail you put into them. The pointed arch on the Gothic building defines it clearly. The bizarre design of the modern building's roof makes it stand out, and the Spanish building is unique from the others also from its roof. The only element of your project that seems a little unpolished is the textures of your buildings. They don't seem to compliment each other and so the different styles of buildings seem a little random in such close proximity. Overall, though, your attention to detail makes your project succesful.
In terms of the rubric, the visual meaning is clear immediately, the sequence of buildings follows your paper well and the composition of your buildings is great.
Good job!!

Trevor -  I really love the visual impact of your structure, though I'm not entirely sure that I understand how it serves as a building. The design is so interesting and the contrast of textures and translucent objects makes the buildings quite unique. In terms of the rubric, the composition of your buildings is creative and the visual meaning is clearly modernist. I don't immediately recognize any icons or symbols, but I don't know if they are necessary for this aspect of the project.
I think it is interesting that you can walk up your buildings. Are they supposed to be that way? Either way, I had fun walking up them and sliding down.
Great design and good start!

Law- The way that you just modified campus to make it modernist shows the great impact of simplicity. That makes modernism really appealing to me. The visual meaning of your campus is really apparent immediately. The only thing I don't like is the random triangle pyramid things in the back of the building. Did I miss something in your paper? What are they?
Your thincbook also works well. I like how you have instructions about how to find it because I'm always worried I'll miss someone's.
Great visual impact!

Liz -  I really do like your windows! That is impressive. Your buildings are very distinctive and very building-like (meaning they look very much like buildings that could exist) The size of your thincbook makes it much easier to read than the normal, original size. I love how you can immediately tell that your buildings are modernist and that you created each part rather than putting pictures on shapes. The bright red of your ramp seems a little out of place with the more subdued colors of the rest of the buildings, but that is a minor detail. Overall it is evident you spent a lot of time making these buildings and it paid off. In terms of the rubric, the visual meaning is clear and the composition of your buildings is interesting and creative. I didn't really see any icons or symbols, but I don't know if that is important here. Good job!

Mary -  The first thing I saw on your project was the blown up pictures of the windows from the Harry Ransom Center and they look so good bigger. Your whole project shows really great inshigt and design. I really also like your landscaping and flowers. How did you do them? The variety of textures and colors make your campus so interesting. I'm also really impressed that you used captions on your collages. Collages in general were a really good idea to decorate your walls. Like everyone else, I love your mini model of campus in the back room. Great overall design. The visual meaning is clear and the composition of your project is really interesting and gives you a lot to look at.
Great job!

Emily -  I love the immediate visual impact of your project! It looks so much like some of the pictures from your paper. I actually like how you have just one color right now because it allowed me to see the interesting shape of your project. The black and white tower also really compliments the buildings. It seems like you have a really great start; adding a little more detail will give visitors to your campus more to explore
The fountain or sculpture is also really artsy. I really like it.

Eric -Your building looks really great and polished already! I love your patio/ covered walkway in front. Also, your thincbook is working well, so good job for that. Your project definitely immediately conveys its meaning and the composition shows Spanish style quite clearly. The pictures you used work quite well, but I've always had an aversion to repeated patterns so that bothered me a little personally, but overall your building is simple and to the point and conveys your chosen architectural style perfectly well.
Great building!

Chetna -  Chetna, your project looks so good! I'm so jealous of your fountain that is tiered! (or is it teired?) All of your details are great (like the rug and the fountain and benches). I have to admit I'm a little confused by the giant obelisk/tower thing, but it does look cool. The arched walkway is also a great touch. Since it is still a work in progress, it seems a little disunified, but I'm sure I'll understand it once you are done. In terms of the rubric, the visual meaning is clear when you first see the project, but I personally am not familiar enough with vedic architecture to understand the meanings, if that makes sense. You also incorporated images and icons well. Great start and good luck with the rest!

Amanda -  I really like your idea: It is more managable and easier to see given the retrictions and kinda narrow range of site in SecondLife. However, I couldn't open the notes. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but the notes simply don't open and the photos show up as little blank checkered boxes. Your star is especially impressive, though I do like all the elements of your project, I just wish I could see the notes and actually take the tour. I think that you would score very high according to the rubric because the visual meaning is clear AND you have icons or symbols.
Good work!

Ashley-  I love your parrot!!! Your project really does look like Frank Llyod Wright's work, especially Falling Waters. The design is great. I love your flowers and the water fal. The tower looks a little out of place to me because it seems so out of touch with nature when compared with the resot of your project. In terms of the rubric, your visual meaning is apparent immediately and the overall campus has many elements which are interesting to look at and explore.
I love your ideas!

Garrison - I like how the interior of your building is decorated with relevant photos: It makes the pictures easy to see and emphasizes your design. The fact that the pictures on your walls don't quite match up is a little distracting from your design, but your building looks good. I also like your columns. Do they have marble textures?
I think if you added another room or two it would give your project more areas to explore.
I also like the bushes in front of your building.
What is the platform near your roof for?
Great project so far!

Brad-  Your project is so creative. It isn't like any of the others at all and it really utilizes the strengths of Second Life. (Like making stuff float) In terms of the Visual Rhetoric scale your project is at the top of the scale except that the meaning isn't clear when first looking at the product. But I love that about it! It makes you get more into the project. Plus, it lets you incorporate icons and symbols really well. The couch is awesome! O, and your emphasis on art really seems so perfect for UT and will bring out the already artsy-ness of campus officially. I wish we had more art here now.
Great, creative project!

Pallavi -  Even though you are still working on your building, I think that it looks good right now. The pictures you used seem to really fit the walls you made so it doesn't look distorted. Also, this may seem strange, but I really like your roof. It looks realistic.In terms of the rubric, your visual meaning is definitely immediately clear and I'm sure once you add some more to your project, it will be creative too. Great start!
