DSDN111: Summary

0 Comments
Within my joint I decided to look at the actions of rotation and lock. As I wanted to create a movement that was meant to be followed on a directed a path, a sort of three dimensional puzzle was created that allows you to move deeper, but locks in from either side. The form I created is designed using latex with the idea that the latex can be manipulated but once there is a large amount of force upon the joint, the latex will break. This means that the model can only be used once. 

 I also looked at interface design and added emphasis to how to use the joint by staining wood. This forms an attraction between the users eyes and wanting to touch the object. I also used a circular dowel rod that is more accustomed to a human hand than a square piece of wood. This encourages touch, play and feel which is one of the key aspects of the joint, to create movement.

About

I am a designer, currently studying Design Innovation at Victoria University of Wellington. My focus areas are website and mobile media development, interaction design, 3D modelling and animation and audio-visual space. My blog shows my journey through each project as well as my learning experience through university. What do I want to be when I grow up? I have no idea. But I love what I'm learning. Although there have been many bumps along the road in this journey and despite the fact that there are going to be many more, I wouldn't have it any other way.
