Develop a personal tool that transforms your craft in a meaningful way. This tool needs to be relevant to your personal practice and the bigger context of your craft.
MY CRAFT
The essence of my craft is to investigate the characteristics of materials and to apply it in another context.
The tool for this assignment will enable users to take a look to the materials as I do and become part of the process.
Example:
Interesting characteristics of my craft:
Being able to look from a different point of view to materials to find a way to apply it.
Problems of my craft:
Get stuck in the experimental phase without focusing on the end product.
MY TOOL
Experiment: Game to make use of the 'problem' of my craft.
Involving users by playing a game with them that will encourage them to find a way to apply unusual materials for usual purposes.
First let the users play the game, then discussing the results and then using the most surprising outcome for the project.
End goal: developing a tool to process an unusual material in a unique way.
Examples of tools developed to process materials for an unusual and unique purpose:
Chromatology is an installation based on paper shredders, each connected with a motion sensor and fed by coloured paper rolls.
The machines are triggered by the pure presence of the viewer in front of it allowing to activate each machine separately and influencing
the colour mixing of the falling paper rain. The visual blending of the paper shreds plays with the perception of colour mixing.
