I made my Grid project out of Oreo and Nutter Butter cookies.  Each box on the grid has 4 cookies in it that are in half.  Oreos and Nutter Butters are my two favorite cookies which is why i chose them.  By splitting the cookies in half and putting them in the box, it made a square which fits the grid.

          MakerBot Industries is a company that produces and sells 3D printers.  3D printers are very cool and interesting in which you can make objects just by a little machine.  MakerBot started by making shot glasses as their first product and they did that for a while.  They started to sell their own kits and the kits eventually required little work.  Over the years, MakerBot upgraded their printers to print bigger and better objects.  Their latest printer is called the MakerBot Replicator Z18, which can create objects up to 2,592 cubic inches.  This printer is priced for 6,500 dollars on their website.  Here is a picture of the printer:

            My name is Matthew Saltys, and i am 18 years old.  I am from Long Island and this is my second semester here at the University of Tampa.  I chose this class because I am interested in learning more about both art and technology.  I want to learn about how art and technology started and what it has evolved into.  Im looking forward to this class and I'm looking forward to the projects we will be working on.
