Buzz Around Town

I promised/threatened a while back more pictures of Buzz. These are the first half of the buzzes that I found. Here there are in order with commentary.

	Buzz is a Management Grad [sponsor] Gary & Libby Jones for the College of Management [artist] Samantha Mach, GT Student ‘09 The College of Management is on the east side of I-75/85 which makes it a leap from the traditional borders. This buzz is all office, but his tie has become unglued and I had to prop it into place for the picture.
	Buzz BuzzCard [sponsor] Georgia Tech Auxiliary Services [artist] Philip Auslander, Deana Sirlin & The Collision Company Buzz Cards are the combination student IDs and debit cards that all students have to carry. The yellow parts of this Buzz are covered in tiny pieces of Buzz Cards.
	The Buzz Around Campus [sponsor] Michael B. Randall, Randall - Paulson Architects [artist] Kristie B. Chamlee This Buzz is painted with beautiful vignettes of Georgia Tech including the Tech Tower. It's one of the most beautifully rendered and artistic buzzes, but the images are just a little busy to figure out without getting real close. I've gone and posted two pictures of this one so that you can see both sides since they are very different.
	Heritage Buzz [sponsor] Kimberly Davis-Blackstone, IE ‘86 [artist] David Boyd, Jr & Nicole Young I really don't get this rather abstract pattern. It must mean something to somebody.
	Bee Green Buzz [sponsor] Georgia Tech Foundation [artist] Helen Kwon To fit the recycling theme of this Buzz, his shirt is covered in small glass beads and his tail has some sort of fluffy fabric on it. And of course, his wings are green.
	COE Super Star [sponsor] College of Engineering [artist] IDSA Georgia Tech This is my favorite Buzz of them all. It's sponsored by the College of Engineering and they tried to make him a tough nerd. He has the buzzsaw mohawk and leather studded wrist cuffs but he also wears a white short sleeve shirt with a pocket protector. To see the welding glasses he had on before I managed to take the picture, see this other Flickr picture.
	A.E.K.Δ.Buzz [sponsor] Kappa Sigma Fraternity [artist] Rob DeLoach Missing In Action. This Buzz never got installed.
	Au² [sponsor] Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity [artist] Carl Wilson, GT Student '09 Another abstract pattern, but at least it is in the official school colors.
	I am an AIESECer [sponsor] AIESEC [artist] Donna Sammander I have never hear of this organization which stands for Association Internationale des Étudiants en Sciences Économiques et Commerciales and is some sort of student exchange program. Their Buzz is just as baffling as their organization. It seems to be some sort of globe covered with stamps.
	George P. [sponsor] Sigma Chi Fraternity [artist] Wendy Jackson This Buzz named after fictional student legend George P. Burdell has one of the prime locations on campus, right in front of the stadium. His GT pennant went missing by the time I stumbled across him.
	Sigma Nu is a Buzz [sponsor] Gamma Alpha of Sigma Nu Alumni Assn [artist] Tex Grubbs Another premium location Buzz, right in Callaway Courtyard. The guy that did this Buzz has pictures of it under construction.
	Egyptian Buzz [sponsor] Delta Sigma Phi Fraternity [artist] Jason Hawkins Another no-show.
	A Buzz Aquatic [sponsor] Peter Mocker ISyE '03 & Jennifer Hinkel INTA '03 [artist] Julia Berman Just as the name suggests, it is an aquatically themed Buzz with lots of fishies all over it. I assume the name is a play on that very bad Wes Anderson movie.
	The Hamilton [sponsor] Clint Padgett EE ‘95 [artist] Kristen Holden MGT '92 & Amy Johnson I have no idea what the "The Hamilton" is supposed to mean. It doesn't call up and Tech lore that I'm familiar with.

If you somehow stumbled onto this post and have pictures of your own, feel free to join the Buzz Around Town Flickr Group I set up.

I'll post the rest another day when I'm fresh out of other blog ideas. Meanwhile enjoy the pics.
