Projects development
At first I was thinking too much about product and too little about material and experimentation below is what I wrote then: Lampshade (metal/paper Mâché, a historical example?) Research Lampshade DIY instructions Paper Maché lamp This was the first hit on google images when typing 'Paper Maché lamp' It is pretty common and easy to make your own DIY 'Paper Maché lamp, I want this lamp to have something different and unique. some photos That's why I want to play with the light coming from the lamp and add in colours, or reflections and maybe motion to the lampshade. [1]
This is what I made from that:
Candle-wax sculpture
After receiving that feedback I wanted to just go and try. So I made this sculpture out of clay, wire, wood. It is fused by candle wax, I like the organic aesthetic it has. Jon did not seem to like it as much, I however could imagine a whole forrest made out of wire and candle wax, this could be used in an stop-motion film for example (thus also linking back to animation)
Tie-wraps structure
The tie-wrap construction is something that is strong yet very agile when it comes to moving and bending. It could be interesting to make an moving piece out of this. I can imagine a breathing statue if you will. The fact that it is woven makes it a historical example. I started on this however have not finished it INSERT PICTURE.
3D Printing in school
I have been wanting to explore the 3D printer for a while and this practise gave me a chance to do so. On the right is my first successful print ever. I did one before which did not come out as successful that was partly due to the kind of impossible mesh I made in the initial model.
I then wanted to test the limits of the machine by printing a crane as suggested by Jon. To see how the printer would handle something that is not very predictable. The overhang turned out quite nice and is something I could have explored further. An example of a material pushed to the limit.
Printing plastic pots as trails for the workshop at Unfold. Besides a trail this is also my comparative example. Plastic vs. Clay, in clay you have many limitations you do not have in plastic. For example in plastic you van print over 45 degrees, which is not possible with clay since it will just tumble down. Also, plastic dries instantly and clay does not.
Something I wanted to explore was salt ceramics, however when me and Colin went to the printing workshop Dries told us that he didn't want salt in his oven because it gave of poison fumes. We made it a shared example by all accepting an fixed diameter for the lower (10cm) and upper ring (7cm), so that the cups should be able to stack.

Hacking a phone
Something I did for Hardware Hacking, but since it was rather time consuming I figured I could use it as an example of a new skill.
To do:
- model and print a city capture that print
- breathing structure out of tiewraps
- make a pot on the turn table to go back to the roots of pottery
Deliverables
- A historical example
- A comparative example
- An example of a new skill
- An example of a material pushed to the limit
- A shared example
