Re/dis-assembly

For Materials and Processes class, Tristan and I were asked to rip a printer to shreds to see how it works. It took us 45 minutes, you get to see it in 5, in reverse, with a catchy soundtrack. (Sorry about the gray screen at the beginning, I guess youtube dropped it or something.)

If you listened to the live sound, you would hear me telling Tristan to get his head out of the picture every five seconds, I guess that's why we decided to be designers and not actors.

All the parts were recycled properly when the project was over.

Don't Throw Play Doh (it gets mad)

This is a short film I made last year, I composed the music too. I hope you like it!

This epic adventure begins with the blue ball flying playfully through the air. The story takes a turn for the dramatic when Blue's fun is interrupted by the careless Yellow. Enraged by Yellow's antics, in a brash move of aggression Blue consumes him. Alarmed by these happenings, the great powers that be amalgamates the two into Green. Green quickly recovers from the smooshing only to return to it's old habits.

Cool Shelter Huh? It was a lot of hard work to put together something functional of this scale. As the first studio project of the year, Instant Village was a great survey of what it's like to take a product all the way from nothing to a finished functional prototype. Have a look at the pdf to get a look at the project start to finish.

Due to some supply problems, the tent looks like it was sponsored by McDonald's, but don't let that detract from the experience.

To see the team scramble to put it up while I take photos and boss them around, click on the video below (there is no sound: do not adjust your computer). Actual setup time was under 3 minutes.
