Kalala Kiwanuka-Woernle

Today we made lots of changes to our design. First we made a mock-up out of cardboard and sewed the pieces together so that it was flexible. We thought initially that we wanted to make the neck piece out of fabric, but after talking to Rosie we felt the project may be better if we make it out of acrylic and fabric like the mirror neck piece. We decided to make another prototype that would be a lot more similar to the final so we undid all the stitches and taped the individual triangles to allow movement. We played with the placement of the fabric as well and the sizes of the triangles and how they would be aligned. The electronics still haven't come in yet so Calder spent time creating pieces to put around the buttons. He came up with many different designs and laser cut them and 3D printed them. Tomorrow we need to work really hard so that the project will be done on time.
