What is a animate or inanimate structure i have to do an art project on it?
the instruction is so vague and general that it means you can do pretty much whatever you want as long as the focus of your project is about an object (not a concept like good, evil, guilt or joy). I also assume that you don't have to make a project on but about a structure. The structure can be alive (animate, like a cat or a dog) or not alive (inanimate) like a bridge, a car, a chair or a spider's web.
How do I decide between a programming job vs. a career in art?
It seems pretty easy to me: Program to support your art career.Heck, program at organizations that deal with art (museums, for example) to support your art career. Free networking!Seriously, I sound a little dismissive, but probably half the people I've worked with had a band or some other career on the side.
How can I promote or submit my design of a car?
You can’tAutomotive manufacturers have their own design teams and are working on designs well head of release. If you go to one of the top automotive design programs in the world, you may catch the attention of one of the automotive manufacturers there, but that is unlikely. The Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA is one of the best in US. All of the major automakers sponsor projects and get designers from there when they graduate. If you go to one of these places, you might get noticed but all the top talent in the world is there, so your chances are slim.Chances are your design is not as good as you think it is anyway and just because you aren’t formally trained in design, you think it is great. I am sure that someone with considerable knowledge on the subject might find any number of faults with it. There are a number of factors that people don’t consider when designing something. It has to be producible for a cost that people will buy it for. It has to meet crash and safety requirements. It has to meet certain aesthetically requirements.The only other other option is to start your own car company, approach an existing independent car company or start with a base vehicle that is similar in dimensions to what you have designed and use the chassis and drive train from it and design your body and interior in typical “coachwork” style from years past. All of the other issues from the paragraph above will still apply, but you may stand a better chance of offering a good solution at a low cost.
How do I start from scratch to learn about remapping the ECU in cars?
I myself am new to this field and am planning to start a project to convert a carburetted 250cc engine to fuel injected. I plan to buy a small engine stand-alone fuel injection kit from here:Small Engine Fuel Injection KitThe kit comes with everything that you will need to add fuel-injection to a small single cylinder carburetted engine (including the software). Installation guide for the kit and tuning guide for the software are available on the website. Access to a dynamo-meter is very important for ECU mapping but I would have to manage without it for this particular project as it is supposed to be a starting point where I want to learn without having to invest heavily . If this project is successful I will move on to mapping and re-mapping of bigger multi-cylinder engines.If you are completely new to engines and their tuning I would first advice you to read a lot about engines, their operation and various parameters which affect their performance. Then you should read about fuel-injection systems. Once you have a clear idea of how these systems work you can start with a small scale project like mine. If you need some reading material I would be happy to share my ebooks on engines and fuel injection systems with you. Note: I am not an expert in engine mapping. I tried to get in touch with the experts in my country to help me learn the art but they had better things to do so this answer only represents what I have learnt on my own so far.
I Need ANDY WARHOL Help!?
You could always try doing something like his earlier paintings, which were simply comic strips projected onto a canvas (ex: "Saturday Popeye", "Dick Tracy", "Superman") and then painted onto the canvas with acrylic. If you want it to have more of a silkscreened aesthetic, you can draw/trace an image you want to repeat on paper with a very soft pencil (6B) very heavily, turn the drawing face down on another piece of paper, and rub the back of the drawing with something hard. Rubbing will transfer the graphite onto the other piece of paper. Apply more graphite to the original drawing before you do another transfer. Another thing you could do is draw/trace an image onto a piece of acetate or transparency with india ink, and then lay a piece of paper on top of the ink (don't press down, or it will smudge). This is the technique Warhol used in his early drawing.
Do bigger wheels make cars go slower?
I'm making a balloon powered car for a school project and I wanted to make my design with bigger wheels in the front then in the back but will it cause the car to go slower? Kind of like this one... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcHLdCI3Ygw Please help.
