ICT PROJECT

I took a quick break from the usual today.

This is my ICT project.

It is a digital painting in the style of Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel. I chose this subject because I wanted it to be interesting and possibly mildly amusing, and parodies are jokes without inspiration.

I used a neat program called Autodesk Sketchbook Pro and a Wacom Pen + Touch tablet to complete this, which took about 4 hours. The rough sketch (which I did on paper) took about 20 minutes, the outline took maybe another hour and the colouring and details took a shade under 3 hours.


I'm pretty happy with it, though I'm not sure about the background colour. Tell me what you think!

Oops

Being the indecisive and flighty fool that I am, I have changed my mind about my presentation.

Instead of doing an educational but mind-numbingly boring presentation about the component parts of a PC, I have instead decided to present a critique of Macs, the odious, pervasively base computer of those with more money than sense. Hopefully this new topic will be more interesting and engaging than the previous plan.

What Is Your PC made of?

My ICT presentation

I have decided that I am going to do my ICT presentation on personal computers, specifically, what makes up a computer (RAM, GPU, CPU etc). I chose this because I do not like the idea of using a tool that I have little or no knowledge about and this presentation will hopefully educate me as well as the rest of the class about the constituent parts of a computer. I will also probably take the opportunity to shaft Apple and convert everyone (including Mr Smith) to the wonderful land of Microsoft. Or then again, maybe not.

We'll see.

The presentation is 9 slides, 5 minutes and will cover the RAM, the CPU, the GPU, the MoBo, the PSU and the HDD (and SSD).
