[Papercraft Objects: First Prototype]

 First Prototype: How'd We Do? What Went Wrong? What Do De Need to Fix?    Going through this process of creating a prototype I wanted to make sure I had both pieces, mask and dagger, in order to snuff out the errors this week so next week I could correct them for the final piece.   To start after last week having lost all my previous work on my dagger I had to work creating a new model and so I did. I chose to simplify this from the previous design I had to make it more realistic to the refernece dagger.                        For a quick breakdown of our pieces I doccumented the unfolding processes for each piece,  And recorded the Rhino Templates along with the printed version templates,     From here I  could get to work on my templates scoring and cutting them out. I used the basic paperclip and ruler for scoring while using an xacto knife for cutting out.  Unfortanultey I made...

Something I never really considered was how prominent remix culture is for artists. As artists the creation of art is insanely important to us all, we have sources of inspiration and things that give us a drive to create.

    "Why not enjoy them today. Because we all have so many thing that are just around in the closet they're in the attic, whatever, that we don't even think of them anymore[..]" (Rob Walker)   Coming out of Gary Hushwit's Objectified my thoughts kept ruminating back to three speakers Rob Walker, Hella Jongerius, and Bill Moggridge. These three all shared similar perspectives towards design and more importantly the relationship humans have with objects.  Rob walkers above quote about enjoying the things we already had particularly stood out to me. As someone whose always had an interest in gaming and the consoles surrounding them the way the film talks to the enjoyment and sentimental values over time reminded me of an object extremely important to me, my Nintendo 3DS. While Nintendo has come out with several different consoles since the original release of the DS line and many more companies releasing consoles in efforts to consistently meet the gaming mark...
