ANNOUNCEMENTS

ALUMNI, FACULTY, STAFF 
INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN 
PRATT’S 125TH ANNIVERSARY 
MEMORY PROJECT

As part of Pratt’s 125th Anniversary celebration, we’re launching the Pratt 125th Anniversary Memory Project, which will document the recollections of Institute alumni, faculty, and staff over the past 125 years. Pratt’s history spans some of the most important events of the 20th century—events that helped shape our culture and continue to influence society. Now, we’re turning to you to help us capture and preserve these precious stories.

Do you remember the elevated train that once ran through campus? The exhilarating classes with your favorite professor? The mood on campus and your response to the Vietnam War or the aftermath of September 11, 2001?  We invite you to share your most compelling memories and images of Pratt Institute through the decades. Selected submissions will appear in a special commemorative issue of Prattfolio, on the Pratt website, and in promotional and other materials related to Pratt’s 125th Anniversary. 

You may send your submissions to the 125th Anniversary Memory Project, including photographs (300 dpi at 100%, if possible), via email to 125memory@pratt.edu.

Please include your contact information and Pratt affiliation, including degree and year if you are an alum.

STUDENT NOTES

Recent Graduate Communications Design alumna Woojin Lee (M.S. ’11) won two awards at the Creativity International Awards 41st annual Media and Interactive Competition for her entries titled 5 Minutes Music Miracle_Interactive Itinerary around Times Square and Pause (a multi-touch screen experience in the public sector), both of which she completed at Pratt. Lee’s entries were selected from hundreds of student and professional entries, and judged by a panel of design experts in the fields of television and radio, film and video, new media, and Web design. Lee’s winning works will be featured on Creativity International’s website and in the Creativity International Awards Annual Book distributed worldwide by HarperCollins Publishers.

Tzu-Huan Lin (M.F.A. Digital Arts ’12) was awarded second place by the International Design Awards (IDA) Print Competition for his piece titled Aurora. Lin’s winning work will be featured in the IDA Book of Designs, to be distributed nationwide, and he will receive year-long coverage on the IDA website. The International Design Awards were formed to recognize emerging talent in architecture, interior, product, graphic, and fashion design.

Anthony Morton, (B.F.A. Painting ’12), had his design selected by the Edge Shave Gel company to represent their new “Edge of Greatness” marketing campaign. The campaign kicked off with the unveiling of a 30-by-16 foot wallscape in Manhattan’s SoHo neighborhood that features Morton’s design, titled Create The Life You Live.  The piece includes symbols of Morton's life inspired by social and technological interactions and views on his generation. The wallscape will remain on display throughout the month of June.
