Up till now we were set a total of 13 projects by our tutors, lasting from 2 days to one we just finished that was nearly 3 weeks. Each tailored to work on different skills and fields within design - spatial, engineering, retail, architectural and always a means to improve knowledge and manufacturing skills with materials
This was the last project our tutors set and lasting nearly 3 weeks. We were put into groups of 3 and had to decide on an insect or animal and come up with a mechanism that we would operate to move up to 1
0 metres the same way our chosen creature does. Here you can see me getting into the 'driving seat' of our groups snail. We worked on the idea that a snail first extends its neck forward, then the back of the snail catches up. The mechanism that we went with is similar to that of scissors and seen in extendable mirrors
As you can see I like to go for the weird and wonderful and try incorporate humour into my work
