Journal no. 3

at 3D design workshop, we get to make stuff for our class projects with wood, metal, acrylic and foam.

the product usually doesn't turn out like how i want.
but they say the design development process is more important, which is comforting.

i like thinking of designs throughout the week, jotting them down in the visual diary, and then adapting the idea to the limitations set by the workshop (material, equipment, technique, feasibility).
and the technician guys are great because they will help make your ideas into reality as long as you draw it out and explain it to them properly.

 i made that last week.
for scale, would be good to make many more circle-thingys and line them up.

and this, yesterday.
cooked thick slabs of acrylic in an oven to bend them over various pipes.
lol, it looks weird but i think i can develop this a lot more.


on another note, Chuck Palahniuk doing an AMA on reddit!
he is hilarious. and i really liked reading Fight Club. :)
