Since COVID-19 is forcing people to stay indoors and isolate from others, I have had the opportunity to spend more time with my family. Every night, we try to eat dinner together and do something as a group, whether we watch a movie or play a game. The other evening my brother, Joshua, elected that we play a game on his Oculus VR headset. We played a game called Beat Saber. In the game different colored blocks come flying towards you and you have to hit them, following the beat of the song playing in the background. This proved to be a fun way for us to get together and hang out. I will say that if you ever elect to play this game be prepared for sore arms the next day. It is definitely a workout.
Even though COVID-19 has disrupted everyone’s plans, don’t let it stop you from hanging out with loved ones (at home). I was really frustrated when I had to leave college and come back home, but I’ve actually enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Even though I miss being in class and seeing my friends, it is nice to finally have some time that I can spend with my family.

“As matters progress with regard to the COVID-19 pandemic, additional advisories and Orders may follow,” said Hopi Chairman Timothy Nuvangyaoma, “but we are implementing what precautions and restrictions that we feel are currently warranted to ensure the public health and welfare of our people. It is important to remember, as has been said before, ‘a virus does not move, people move it’, so we encourage the Hopi public to take charge of their own health and welfare and be cautious in their daily interactions with others during this time.” #IndigenousStories

This was a project I made while dealing with the stress of the coronavirus affecting my family and friends in Queens. I drew up, 3D modeled, and rendered a model of the coronavirus with spherical polygons shaped using python and math. The model was made with repeating spheres distorted by different variables. Using these variables, I can also duplicate the computerized version of the virus indefinitely. Living just a walk away from the current epicenter of COVID-19, Elmhurst, Queens, every day of life now is profoundly shaped by this disease, with family members currently hospitalized and suffering from this pandemic. This piece is me taking the power back by making the virus, manipulating it, and containing it within my own virtual creation.
