I took an aesthetics of design course in my senior year of my studies at CU Boulder. I figured it was a good way to cap off my engineering degree and round the corner to something relevant from my first degree. On the first day we were given the assignment of making a name plate to put in front of us on the table. The task was to make the name plate communicate something about who you are, using only the aesthetics of its design to express that message. Well, I wasn't going t
