My Summer in a Voxel Project

-

    This summer I went to the Metallica concert in Edmonton, went camping, and also sat at home and gamed with friends. 

    From the start I knew that I wanted to represent the Metallica concert, so I started out by making the Metallica "M". 


    I then went on to make it into the landscape for a campsite, thus represnting my camping expirience.


    While working on adding colour, I realized that it looked alot like minecraft, so I decided to use colours similar to the game as to represent this other big part of my summer.

     The film really spoke to me and helped me figure out what I wanted to do for this project. Whilst watching the film I was actively drawing out ideas. The minimalistic design was heavily influencd by Objectified, as that what the main idea was. I think that I managed to capture all the main ideas brought forward in the film through my designs.      I think that my designs are very functional, and relatively aesthetically pleasing. I also wanted to make sure that they are easy to instaqll, so I drew on screws where screwholes would be. My designs are also pretty simple, makigng them easy to print and mass produce. All of my designs I made based off what Dieter Rams said a good design was: I made the designs as little designed as possible, was consistent in my design, made them structurally stable as to be longlived, they are flat and unobtrusive, aesthetica and pleasing to look at, and useful.      This assignment was really interesti...

     I was really excited to start this project, because I love 3-D printers and printing in general, as I have my own printer at home. I also got a little bit of an advantage with this, as I have about a year of 3-D printing knowledge that definitely helped me out during the project.      This was the very first model I made for this project, albeit it is a bit simple but I think it shows off the main components of this project pretty well. I wanted to use some of the new commands we learned as much as possible throughout this project, and I think I have learned a lot about rhino.      I actually accidentally made these prong forms while playing around with the loft function. I attempted to loft a bunch of circles into points to make some cones, and I made a prong. I then found out that it would result in a slightly different prong form and direction depending on where I attempt to loft the arrangement. Once I found this out, I also realized...

     For our design I had the idea to do cassette tape storage in the shape of a cassette player, and we decided to go with it. I like the two big speakers in front and I think that they are to main focal points when looking aat a cassette player, so it's important that we have them in our final design. We also were decideing wether or not to actually make a funtioning handle for easy carrying, and we'll have to figure that out at a later date.      All of these designs are really good, and I think that they all have great feaftures that we will be able to put together to make an aesthetically pleasing and functiuonal design.
