I think i approached the project in to much f a fine art way and sort of got trapped in the concept rather than focusing on the making part of it. So to make a fresh start i will try and not do that in this project. So far I have started looking an old lamp shade I found. It can be manipulated and squashed in many ways and i think it responds to the product design brief of looking 'expand and compress'. I found making models in todays session really helpful and decided that I would explore the possibility of sound in my work as I was looking at below shapes and air bag type structures.
Here are a couple of videos I recorded just to kind of explore what sounds materials make and how they move......sorry about the inappropriate laughter at the end....
