Seahorse Mate

For one of my classes I had to chose an object that I will draw multiple times and then eventually reach some sort of abstract logo based conclusion. I happened to choose this seahorse from the table so I get to look after the little fellow for a while. 

This and That

On my recent fiery crossing of the Cook straight I decided to go through my computer and find any riding clips of myself over the last year or so and plonk them into a short edit. And here it is.

Inventing Materials

This is my end use board for one of my university papers. For the paper I had to experiment with a bunch of materials with the intention of changing their properties. My final material ended up being layers of fabric with lines sewn into them to create cells to hold expanding foam in certain places/shapes. For this end use board I wanted to give it stereotypical aesthetic qualities of action sports companies to fit the chosen application. 

Holga

Today I had a little play with my Holga lens that I rarely use because I have mixed feelings about it. 

This is what I got.

HEY!

last night i flew to Auckland with Tim and was met at the airport by a nice man who I then bought this car from. Today I drove it down from Auckland to Wellington.It is a 1991 Nissan s13 Silvia - SR20DE - Auto

I had a bunch of fun driving through the hill sections. It is a little rough but has lots of potential for fun so I am happy.

Cardboard Kitchen

For my Art and Design Studio assignment I had to produce a work biased loosely on "narrative of self". I was not super happy with were i ended up but it was an interesting process.  Here is what I wrote to explain my work.  

"For my final piece I have crafted the entire bench top surface of my kitchen from cardboard so that it is raised up to a height that is convenient for me.  For some years now I have found bench tops and other parts of houses to be a poor fit for myself as I am a rather tall person. This cardboard installation is more of a sketch showing how things could be in a world ideal for myself but inconvenient for others. The aesthetics of the cardboard help to establish a sense of this being not so much a permanent fixture and more a proposal of a possibility. I came to this final work because I was experimenting with scale and proportion and I feel that this fits well as this work puts the kitchen into the same scale as me. I am presenting photographs of my work because it would be almost impossible to bring the pieces I have made in and once they were out of context they would make very little sense."

More work that I am doing/have done can be seen on the blog that I use for my Digital Design and Visualization class.

Spaces

Yes this is a super lame post in which I show of my new bedroom with the same things in it. 

Deal with it.
