  MESH MASHUP: CONCEPT GENERATION I am posting the second Project from OBDF class.  For this assignment, I had to generate new meaning through items which are hardly related each other.  From my understanding, Remix culture is done by adding new perspective of view on idea that already have been existed.  The new perspective or idea will be something that are not related with the original idea before.  And at the same time, I think remix shouldn't completely take original meaning away. The hardship I encountered during this project was recognizing objects around me.  It took me some time to think of ingredients to create new meanings. 1. Banana light : Organic power.    I mixed banana and telephone poles to generate the idea 'Organic power.'  To represent each word, I used banana (for organic) and telephone pole (for power).  - Used objects :  Banana, Telephone Pole.  B ooom ,  banan.stl.  www.thingiverse.com/thing:21...

I made Naoto Fukusawa's cell phone design with tinker cad as a first project of OBDF110B class. I chose this product since this product's shape was simply pleasing and unique to start with, and it was a design derived from human experience according to its designer's interview (Hustwit 51:56 - 53:46 ,) and at the same time that experience was universal that everyone could relate to it. These are the reasons that I thought it's a nicely designed product. Expressing different angle was a challenging part in this project, since they were far different shapes from presented basic shapes. I used Minus feature with hollow shapes to get different slides with different angles.  Cell phone's upper part detail from above (Key point : Symetrical vertically, Different angle expression on its bottom part) Cell phone's bottom (Key point : Angles on the bottom) Cell phone from side (Key point : Angles with different degree, light and screen detail) Reference Photo captured fro...
