I laser-cut the acrylic parts, and those came out pretty good except I am worried about the gap between cylinder and motor because it is too tight. Hopefully, there is enough space between the motor shaft and cylinder to put…

Construction Timeline 2019

I made some major change for my project. I realized that there is 12 Volts light bulb so I decided to have separate power sources for the light bulb and the motor. Therefore, I will connect the light bulb to the standard 110V house electrical outlet and the motor to the 12V battery. For the…

Current vs 20th century design movements 2019

My chosen final design aesthetic is disco(nightclub). Nightclub scene in the 20th century is pretty insane because they were experiencing blossom of capitalism while being uneducated. Money, drug, freedom, and individualism gave people the courage to express themselves more unique and cooler as much as they can. 80shttps://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/13/us/the-starck-club-documents-rise-and-fall-of-dallas-nightclub.html 90shttps://www.buzzfeed.com/gabrielsanchez/30-photos-that-show-just-how-insane-the-90s-club-scene-reall 90shttps://allthatsinteresting.com/90s-raves#1 Current Nightclub Scenehttps://electronic.vegas/ces-week-vegas-edm-event-calendar/ While comparing…

Main project inspirations 2019

Personally, I think the final form of the aesthetic is seduction. People say art is all about seduction. I disagree that it is not solely that but it does one of the biggest parts of aesthetic and human life. Where is the mecca of the seduction? Party, nightclub, Discoteca, lounge, or etc. You name it.…
