My Argument/Thesis<br />
can be put into a digital “landscape” where<br />
individuals can visit the website and explore the<br />
blocks. The mesh for the blocks will be eventually<br />
open sourced, and a 3D <strong>print</strong> of it will be attempted<br />
later. The result of all these, leads into a stunning 3D<br />
rendering of the blocks with a successful mesh that<br />
shows the details the sage leaves on the block.<br />
While I am a History major, I am also deeply<br />
interested in art and have taken several art classes<br />
in the College of Visual and Performing Arts. I<br />
became interested <strong>print</strong>making and <strong>print</strong>ing, which<br />
are understood currently as two separate disciplines<br />
but seem to have been very enmeshed during the<br />
time of colonial <strong>print</strong>ing. I argue that Benjamin<br />
Franklin and his team used <strong>print</strong>making methods<br />
and other very in<strong>no</strong>vative tech<strong>no</strong>logies that I feel<br />
should classify Benjamin Franklin as an artist. I<br />
think his <strong>print</strong>s should be taken into consideration<br />
amongst the work of fine artists, and his subsequent<br />
bills <strong>print</strong>ed by himself and those within his <strong>print</strong>ing<br />
