Idea Change

In class today, Hannah and I came up with a cool way of doing my assignment.
The idea was to have to bits of wood, separated in the middle by springs. To squeeze the toothpaste, the tube would be between the two bits of wood and the user would have to put pressure against the top piece. This would then squish the springs down allowing the user to get toothpaste from the tube.

Concept


Project Three


Drawing on the observations and experimentation in Project 1 and 2, Project 3 requires students to develop an experience. This can take the form of a 3D object, media design or curated experience. The experience can be created off site, but must be accessible (e.g. no more than 10 minutes from the campus by foot) and permitted in that space. Students are required to document this experience in use. Students must also write 1000 words contextualising and relating the experience to  one of the following ‘structures of feeling’:

-        Glamour
-        Austerity
-        Comfort
-        Routine
-        Rebellion

Final 500 Words


Finding More Sources.

So far finding two more sources has proved to be rather difficult. I have found many that I could somehow relate back to my 500 words and my findings but to me they just dont fit right so far. I will keep searching the Library and online to see if I can find two more that fit much better.  

My one source so far is the glamour weeks reading from the reading list.
