Curious Vase

Curious Vase is a project made by Mianne de Vries and consists of a group of vases within each other. You need to break through the outer vase in order to see the second layer of the vase beneath and so forth. Each vase has up to 3 vases hidden inside. I like the concept of this vase in how you need to break through the outer layer in order to reach the second type of vase beneath because it started giving me the idea for my game. I wanted to create a game in which blocks were used and destroyed based on the movement of a ball. At first, I wasn’t sure how to make this game work, but then I realized, I could just use this breaking system to increase the difficulty of my game, which I will talk about more in my proposal.

The second project I found was the Surface Tension Lamp, created by Front.I found this project very intriguing in how it used bubbles. Bubbles change colors all the time due to the fact that it catches light and reflects the room or area like a multi colored structure. This bubble gave me the idea of changing the colors of my blocks on my game depending on the difficulty. As you continuously hit the block, the color fades and it will disappear just like how a bubble does. This project made by Front looks relatively simple but I like the simplicity and meaning behind the creation of this work.
