  • Exploring Queer Expressions in Mens Underwear Through Post Internet Aesthetic As Vaporwave
    Mens underwear :Exploring queer expressions in mens underwear through post internet aesthetic as Vaporwave. Master in fashion design Mario Eurenius 2018.6.09. 1. Abstract This work explores norms of dress design by the use of post internet aesthetics in mens underwear. The exploration of underwear is based on methods formed to create a wider concept of how mens underwear could look like regarding shape, color, material and details. Explorations of stereotypical and significant elements of underwear such as graphics and logotypes has been reworked to create a graphical identity bound to a brand. This is made to contextualize the work aiming to present new options and variety in mens underwear rather than stating examples using symbols or stereotypic elements. In the making of the examples for this work the process goes front and back from digital to physical using different media to create compositions of color, graphic designs and outlines using transfer printer, digital print, and laser cutting machine. Key words: Mens underwear, graphic, colour, norm, identity, post internet, laser cut.

  • Senior Advice from Newport Alumni Seniors! You’Ve Survived High School
    22 Opinion JUNE 16, 2020 Zümrüt Ertem Reporter Senior Advice from Newport Alumni Seniors! You’ve survived high school. What’s next? Newport alumni have come back to give their advice! Jeff Probst (Class of 1979) ‘‘You never know when it’s your day to step up with a million dollars on the line.” Emma Lau (Class of 2019) “Don’t study last minute! College tests cannot be winged like high school tests. Take advantage of any tutoring services at your school. Mine has free tutoring and it is better to sign up for a tutor early rather than last minute when you need one because they might be full.” Yuka Kozakai (Class of 2019) “Embrace ‘work hard and play hard’, especially during fall quarter. Get out of your comfort zone and just talk to random people in your dorm because everybody else wants to make friends. Be super social and try new things, join clubs, and make upperclassmen friends. Make sure you are not toxic because nobody wants that.” Alia Smith (Class of 2019) “We spend so much time in high school saying ‘once I get to college...’ but we forget that once we get to college, it is hard. College is so hard. School is hard, making new friends is hard, and waking up is hard. In high school, I never got below a B, but then in my first semester of college, I failed one of my classes because I did not take care of my mental health. I want you seniors to know that college is hard, and taking care of your mental health will be the most important thins you learn in college.

  • Thaiboy Digital Legendary Member
    THAIBOY DIGITAL 24/07/19 VERSION 01 LEGENDARY MEMBER THAIBOY DIGITAL LEGENDARY MEMBER 01. BIOGRAPHY Born from a blurred phrase first uttered in an intoxicated voicememo sent off to Bladee in late 2017, “Legendary Member” is what Thaiboy Digital maintains all of his life, every choice and every step, literally every single moment has come down to. Ever since his infamous and disruptive deportation from Sweden in early 2015, Khon Kaen born and Stockholm raised Thaiboy Digital has inch by inch gotten the better of Bangkok, slowly working his way up from playing dim club shows in the citys frenzied underbelly to a 30th floor penthouse overlooking the ancient temple district of Rat Burana, casually dropping the eurotrance/trap hybrid EP “S.O.S” and Bladee collaborative album “AvP’” about halfway up. Steadily connected with the mythical Drain Gang, “Legendary Member” was recorded in a handful of overheated sessions in Stockholm and London during Thaiboys VISA regulated visits in the summer of 2018 together with producers GUD, Woesum and Whitearmor, featuring guest appearences from Ecco2k, Bladee and Yung Lean, Running high on subdued feelings of ecstasy, triumph and glowing hopes of achieving something spectacular, “Legendary Member” is a compact body of work, pastel coloured and glossy at a glance, gritty and melancholic upon closer inspection - fragile melodies and tones on the verge of decay sprinkled like sparkling dust and carefully stitched together with the oversaturated, dense basslines to create cute, menacing compositions seemingly fading in and out of consciousness. Throughout the record, Thaiboy Digital is shifting through hypersensitive singing and liquid, cocky raps, his articulation swaying between tender pillow talk and careless semi-threats mimicking the sun and the moon, locked in a constant dance of light and darkness; hope and despair; love and loss.
