Project 2 - Mass Producible Object Proposal

Image
For project two, I want to expand on my current project, but I think that I should finish it up closer to the end of term.  I dramatically redesigned the edges to contain straight edges so that they are easily stackable and portable, like an Ikea shelf would be. In terms of naming it as a product, I would advertise it along the lines of "geometric dragon bookshelf" because I want to keep the name relatively literal. I ended up making a lot of progress on redesigning the bookshelf to be cut exclusively on the CNC machine. I was pretty torn over designing the curved shelves, so I approached it with the intent of using only straight boards with diagonal cuts. Until then, I'd like to work on a project that is relatively small scale but will still take up the rest of my semester.  When considering mass-production, the first thoughts that come to mind is something that can appeal to an audience. So for this project, instead of making an object designed for myself, I want to cre...

Remix culture

Image
  Remix culture doesn't need to make sense and part of it's appeal is the surreal aspect of it. Because of it's ability to take current pieces of work and combine them into something new and different, it allows one greater creativity through speeding up the process compared working from scratch. I mostly think it's cool to be able to take an existing work and remix it by either adding more works or changing it to fit your own style. What if a ghost couldn't float? It'd be able to go through any objects but will have no way of going up or down, meaning it could be stuck drifting underground beneath hills, etc and unable to go on any second stories. This issue would probably be solved by giving a ghost wings. Maybe the type of wings would also indicate morals (devil wings for evil) or personality of when it lived. (Mostly inspired by my excitement for Halloween coming up)  ghost   wings Bathtub filled with toys (rubber duck, toy boat, and a pool floatie), except ...

Selection and Refinement

Image
Feedback that I received for Bartholomew III was pretty consistent with each person. The initial reaction was that it was cute and creative, but past that I got advice to adjust the hat on him to make it centered. The initial reason to make the hat lopsided was due to the small space between the ears in the original Tinkercad design. In Meshmixer, I decided to make the ears further apart so that the hat could rest more naturally on Bartholomew III's head and I also adjusted the size of the hat to better suit him. Another piece of feedback that I decided to integrate into my design was to add markings to make the overall creature more distinct. Initially in Tinkercad, I claimed that Bartholomew III had a beaver tail but it appeared more like a stretched, flat circle, which didn't show what I wanted to demonstrate.  My creation involves remixing as I altered parts of the frog, such as the eyes to become more bulged out. The rest of the creature encourages read/write culture becau...
