Week 10 Class


I enjoyed the making processes of week 10.  The free creation of pieces.  I liked looking at different joining methods and how my pieces would come together.  I think a lot of it was based on rigidity and building up the form.  I found thread to be an excellent joining method when used in conjunction with toothpicks.  I will definitely use thread again.

The sketching part of this week was more of a challenge.  I have always struggled with isometric and perspective drawings.  Different planes and 3D images have never been my forte.  As a result I wasn’t able to complete this task the way that I would have liked but I definitely put my best effort in…even if that is hard to believe :S





During the “thinking about growth” part, I looked back at my construction process.  I immediately saw similarities between my pieces and other rigid frames that extend in a unidirectional way.  This lead me to think of scaffolding which is how I will focus my growth.
