THE FLASH BANG

PRIDEFUL VESSEL


the project<br />

The objective of this project was to<br />

construct a pair of vessels that not<br />

only needed to be unified, but must<br />

exert the word given to them. Through<br />

the exploration of many materials I<br />

finalized my process with aluminium.


ehind the process<br />

Sloth<br />

Being physically and emotionally<br />

inactive; Lazy.<br />

Gluttony<br />

Habitual greed or excess in eating<br />

Pride<br />

It is identified as believing that one<br />

is essentially better than others, failing<br />

to acknowledge the accomplishments<br />

of others, and excessive admiration<br />

of the personal self.

modeling<br />

Pride was the sin of choice, but now my<br />

mission is to represent something that<br />

is prideful in an actual form. Also,<br />

making spirals in a hotwire was an<br />

adventure in itself.


The Prep


Through material exploration<br />

consisting of blue and red foam,<br />

wood is the last material that is<br />

crafted to perfection before it is<br />

used to make a mold to make an<br />

aluminum model.

THE<br />

TANK


abstraction sparks imagination<br />

moving parts<br />

Children have unbelievable imaginations and sometimes<br />

their minds compete with the toys already out<br />

there. So my intentions for a toy is to create one that<br />

is literal enough to be a ground plane for a kid to<br />

work off of, but also be abstract enough so their<br />

creativity stays limitless.<br />

room for creativity

model making<br />

Starting off I kept it simple figuring out<br />

where I wanted my toy to change. I then<br />

comtemplated how long this first iteration<br />

would keep the childs attention, then it<br />

dawned to me; it needed something else. Of<br />

course, it needed the gears! Quickly diving<br />

back into my wide range of materials I<br />

constructed the next form of the toy.

THE O-INN


stop in and have a snack<br />

The O-Inn is a special birdfeeder designed to please the tufted titmouse, a<br />

common New England bird, in ways that suit its preferences and make it<br />

feel right at home with every use.


tufted titmouse<br />

-height : 4.5 in<br />

-weight : 0.6 oz<br />

-wingspan : 6.9 in<br />

I picked to make a birdfeeder<br />

for the titmouse<br />

primarily for my interest<br />

in their choice of housing<br />

which is in pre-excavated<br />

cavities typically in trees.<br />

using tree bark<br />

Incorporating the<br />

titmouses nesting habits,<br />

I really wanted try to<br />

make the feeder out of<br />

bark by hollowing out old<br />

trees that have already<br />

fallen, and then capped it.<br />

weather testing<br />

To make sure my feeder<br />

was of facing the elements,<br />

I weather tested it<br />

on a bright, windy day<br />

and sprayed it with a<br />

hose from different<br />

angles.


The final product drastically<br />

changed the incorporation of<br />

bark to increase the lifespan of<br />

the feeder. Simplicity is key with<br />

pleasing shapes giving it a<br />

modern feel to nature. I live in<br />

the woods and still have them<br />

hanging around up to this day!
