week 2

Working with the trig figurs, made me want to explore clocks a little bit more.

I have before made a project with time projected on the floor and therefore saw this as an opportunity explore this.
I was working with two challenges not showing any numbers, and getting the actual time right, calculating how fast the clack should go: The first one, based of the training from class was this one:

The second one I wanted to play arround with more was this oe

I would like for that one to show two ellipses, the design from the alarm clock I designed was this, and was what I based my ideas for the clock from:

 

Week 1

Hi

First is a link to my project I worked on during bootcamp:

I was trying to illustrate an idea I had for a device turning on and turning off other electronic devices. Therefore a created a black background and and little black dotes in the that by calculating the distance from center to radius in the circling bubbles I made the bubbles turn on and turn off the background. Also I wanted life to the bubble so I added sinus to the balls, and gave them a changing “pulsing” movement as well.

What I hope to get out of this class:

I have a background in industrial design, and have carefully touched code a bit – I hope to learn some tools and get some inspiration to develope my ideas, and formulate them. This is a new language for me, but I’m eager to learn.

 

Inspiration artists I like is Dieter Rahms and Jacob Jensen, both industrial designers using simplicity nature and technology.

Especially Jacob J, challenged technology in the 70′s by using wood, and aluminium together, and creating an art piece and gramophone.
