You and your partner will use your objects from Part 1 of the Push\/Pull assignment as studies for creating an inflatable sculpture and installation. Your sculpture will be based upon combining two or more of you and your partner\u2019s Push\/Pull objects and enlarging them. Your object will affect the space and give us a new experience &#8211; give this consideration as you are brainstorming ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span id=\"for_this_assignment_you_and_your_partner_will\"><strong>For this assignment, you and your partner will:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>share<\/strong>&nbsp;your objects with each other and talk about what is exciting about the potential in combining some of your objects.<\/li><li><strong>select a space<\/strong>&nbsp;in the library where you will install your sculpture for our critique. *<\/li><li><strong>select<\/strong>&nbsp;two or more of your objects to combine to create an inflatable sculptural installation. This new inflatable sculpture should be customized to the space you have selected.<\/li><li><strong>create<\/strong>&nbsp;your inflatable by enlarging the pattern pieces and sewing them together.&nbsp;Your enlargement needs to be&nbsp;<strong>at least<\/strong>&nbsp;a&nbsp;<strong>scale of 1 inch to 6 inches<\/strong>.<\/li><li><strong>add an air tube<\/strong>&nbsp;to your inflatable so that a fan can inflate your new shape. Where is the best location on your inflatable to place the air tube? Remember to also find out where the nearest outlet is at your installation location so you can plan where the fan will need to be.<\/li><li><strong>modify<\/strong>&nbsp;your inflatable so that it is customized to the space you have selected by trying it out in the space, observing it, and making changes that you think will enhance our experience of the space. The inflatable will behave differently than the original stuffed object. Once you have made the inflatable ask yourself, \u201cwhat is interesting to me\/us about the inflatable version? what alterations can I\/we make to emphasize these new elements?\u201d<\/li><li><strong>prepare<\/strong>&nbsp;to share it with the class by rehearsing your setup. Each team will set up their inflatable right before we see it for critique. To make this go smoothly, each team needs to practice setting up their installation in a short amount of time.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3><span id=\"nbspnotes_about_selecting_a_space_in_the_library\">*<strong>&nbsp;Notes about selecting a space in the library:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Your inflatable cannot impede exits or entrances of the library. Nor should your inflatable block elevators and\/or stairwells. Passersby need safe and accessible ways through the library. You can, though, alter a space that is away from main hallways, exits, entrances, stairs or elevators.<\/li><li>Please be quiet when you are testing out your inflatable piece so as not to disturb people studying.<\/li><li>Make sure your inflatable does not damage any books, structures, artworks, furniture, people(!) etc. in the library.<\/li><li>Test out your inflatable in our classroom before testing it out in another space.<\/li><li>When in doubt, ask Olivia or Sean.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span id=\"materials\"><strong>Materials<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You will be provided with ripstop nylon to use for this assignment.
