Student submissions documenting exercises, projects, and other assignments.
For this checkpoint, I tested different methods to integrate fabric with the wooden mechanisms. I attached cloth strips at the gear train and a folded piece of fabric…
After a little thinking from last time, I made a rice snake. It started to fall apart so I had to make a new one. I put rice…
I tried two different experiments to see if I could combine two different movements and see if I could weave the paper a bit. I also wanted to…
Initial Sketches Reflecting on my progress from the last update, I decided I wanted to focus on a simpler mechanism that put more emphasis on the movement of…
Some ideas that I started with for this project: Large scale fiber work- I knit & crochet kind of a lot so I’m looking to work with a…
I first experimented with motion in the vertical direction and then in the horizontal direction. I decided that I wanted to incorporate both directions. I iterated through a…
Overall, I consider this project to be a success. I’m really pleased with the one ‘limb’ that I started with and stuck with, and I almost wish I…
I was inspired by Curran’s mechanical work with crankshafts allowing for different radii to achieve different periods of motion. I devised a similar crankshaft with the laser cut…
For my project I wanted to make something that simultaneously has vertical and rotational motion. I first created a frame made of embroidery hoops and rubber bands that…
Patchingverb When thinking about actions in relationship to fibers and textile’s I was drawn to the action of patching. Patching from a distance? Patching up an image from…
