Creative Chemistry: USU Student Using Science to Create Unique Pieces of Art
Out of an attempt to make homemade paints to cut down on his costs, Utah State University student Adam Lambert stumbled upon a way to patina copper on filter paper. With some off-the-shelf supplies, and a little research online, the USU senior, studying in the sculpture program, uses chemistry to manipulate a mixture of root killer, baking or washing soda, lye and Vitamin C to create different colors of copper ions. After soaking a filter paper in that solution, letting it dry, and applying a bit of glue, Lambert then can use the papers to create different art pieces.
USU Interior Architecture & Design is currently ranked 8th in the top 20 Interior Design Schools
A career in interior design can be a fruitful one. Fulfilling those goals, however, will mean getting an education that can make that happen. Among the many considerations that should be considered when choosing a school for interior design, two are among the most important. One of those factors, tuition, is essentially universal for nearly everyone. Another important factor is the graduation rate because accomplishing those goals begins with finishing your degree.

From Street to Screen: Charles Burnett's Killer of Sheep
Charles Burnett's 1977 film Killer of Sheep is one of the towering classics of African American cinema. From Street to Screen: Charles Burnett's Killer of Sheep is the first book-length collection dedicated to the film and designed to introduce viewers to this still relatively unknown masterpiece. Beginning life as Burnett's master's thesis project in 1973, and shot on a budget of $10,000, Killer of sheep immediately became a cornerstone of the burgeoning movement in African American film that came to be known variously as the LA School or LA Rebellion. By bringing together a wide variety of material, this volume covers both the politics and aesthetics of the film as well as its deeper social and contextual histories.
