Looking at the different components used to create the video following the bowling ball form on destination to the next. I liked the use of colour and the grandeur of the whole thing. It helped me with figuring out ideas and different ways of travel

Groups are split in teams responsible for their specific zones of the machine and each zone must ensure a linear ‘transfer of energy’ from one zone to the next, whether it’s a ball rolling or a bucket swinging; all with no human intervention.]]> 2017-12-17 20:06:14 UTC https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216802372 lauraannemosullivan https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216805009 I believe the most beneficial learning throughout this workshop was the peer work.

We scored the cardboard before folding with the back of a blade to insure a smooth edge. Then filled with sugar to allow them to stand upright and have weight to knock the next down. ]]> 2017-12-17 20:38:23 UTC https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216806092 lauraannemosullivan https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216806357 I decided to make another element to make the finish more complete by dropping a tea bag into a cup.

I feel a project like this needs time to for construction individually and also time putting it together. If we had more time it may have ran smoother.  ]]> 2017-12-17 20:42:55 UTC https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216806589 lauraannemosullivan https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216810045 Trudie decided to make her section a series of cogs which would allow the ball to rotate and land down into a shoot. It is obvious she had spent time working out all the elements of how her piece was going to work and her use of colour in her drawings help your eyes follow the different parts role. This mapping /drawing plan is something I would like to use in the future.]]> 2017-12-17 21:15:15 UTC https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216810045 lauraannemosullivan https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216810099 2017-12-17 21:15:54 UTC https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216810099 lauraannemosullivan https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216810497 Ciara sculpture consisted of a large cone to capture the ball then an angular tunnel that would allow the ball to exit. I liked her treatment of the materials. She sliced the cardboard to make it more pliable, coiling it around into a cone shape. Her use of folds in the acetate where well considered and gave her sculpture an angular aesthetic.  ]]> 2017-12-17 21:19:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216810497 lauraannemosullivan https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216810559 2017-12-17 21:20:07 UTC https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216810559 lauraannemosullivan https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216811113 He always enjoy figuring out the inner workings of mechanical machines and this inspired his making of these kinetic sculptures from discarded industrial scraps. I was interested in his use of colour and lighting two components I feel would have benefited our sculpture had we more time.

University's School of Design, walks us through his class, Cardboard
 Modeling, and the Rube Goldberg Machine.

This design made me think more carefully about cardboard construction and the benefits it has in the design industry. It also made me aware of the human interaction element and the importance of that participation. The machine created really widened my mind as to what is possible and what one could do with a bit more preparation. I quite like the plain white card asthetic.]]> 2017-12-17 21:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lauraannemosullivan/y3ck20npywjt/wish/216813046
