IDENTITY VESSELS
Patrick Tibbetts, Fall 2023
This presentation will tell you about these finally models by showing you why they were made, where the idea was from, and what I did to decide on these final models
Final Models
The reason I have chosen all of the memories specifically is because all of them have 1 thing in common they all had to do will two or more different people. I feel that the idea of needing more than 1 person has really shaped me as a person teaching me that not only are somethings harder with only yourself but some things are even impossible without help and support.
Project Statement
Brainstorming Sketches
This first concept was made with my memories of my first word, which of course I don't remember but I have been told it so many times it feels like I do
My First Word
This second concept is about me getting my computer witch I really remember as I thing that I was not able to do on my own and I really needed support and help from my dad
Getting my computer
This final concept is about me getting my dog which not only did I need my parent to help me figure out. which dog to get since my mom is allergic to hair but also since we needed to all agree so we all had to be there when we worked on getting a dog.
Getting my dog
Thank You!

Project Paragraph
During this project we have made objects that take experiences that we have personally had and convey the feeling of the need to work together to others. The objects are meant to have encourage cooperation. These objects can make others feel as though they need to work together in the same way the author felt in those moments. But to get to the final project a lot of different sketches and prototypes with different shapes sizes and functions were made which we would get feedback on to make more sketches and prototypes until we final thought we had a good flushed out final object.
Growth Paragraph
Throughout this project I have grown in many ways but I feel as though the biggest was I have grown has been how I learned how to convey different emotions through sketching and shapes of my projects. I also feel I was able to give good and helpful feedback to others while using any feedback I was given to its fullest extent that I could by not only using the feedback but thinking of other ways to using the feedback to. I was also able to use a lot of sketching to decide on different ways i could use the feedback before I built it. And using those sketches make many different paper and cardboard prototypes.

Sketching
During this project I have been working on learning how to take experiences that I have personally had and turning them into objects that can help other people understand how I felt in those moments either by how the objects looks, feels, or functions. As well as learning how to make a project look good even if i'm not using very high-fi materials or tools to make the project look good.
