Concept Development

In this studio we partnered with the Discovery museum to expand a space there dedicated to mirrors. Our group made four projects each related to mirrors. I worked on mirror wall to create an interactable mirror that you can distort and bend in any way. There were a few iterations before coming up with the final which was made in the fourth scale. The first few were about bending the mirror in smooth and natural ways so that the reflection could be smooth and you could actually see yourself. The reason why I went with distorting and bending mirrors was when kids see themselves get their faces stretched or their eyes enlarge they thing it's funny. When we took our projects to the museum, we did not get much interaction due to our location. Overall I enjoyed making the projects and seeing the little interaction we got with them.

I thought that I had some growth in a few areas in this studio. When we were coming up and brainstorming ideas, I saw growth in the quality of the ideas I was putting out along with the speed I came up with them and sketched down on paper. Another area I saw growth in was my ability to talk about my projects in front of people. In the past I was not very confident in "selling" my project to other people verbally but I feel that it is getting better.
