Material Exploration

The idea for my project came from Ben’s memory of him and his family walking along a river in Vermont. When I thought of Ben’s memory I had two ideas, the first I had was to make a project about living in the moment. I made multiple pairs of glasses for you and your family or friends to put on together. When you put the glasses on it makes your vision completely black in hopes to make you live in the moment; but the second idea is the same project, but a project based around an experience that can only be lived once. It requires you to remember and accept what is in the past.

I grew in many ways in this studio, and I learned a lot about the people in this class. I learned about digital fabrication, I did this by using rhino for the first time. For empathize had to understand Ben to make a project about his memories. I also explore a lot of new material this studio by using wood which is material exploration. Finally I worked on expression in which I added myself into a project focused on Ben's memory.
