Week 2 Day 5
After learning about the wearable technology involving
wires, sound, and light etc. we moved onto 3D printing with Levi and Alberto
and how that could also be used within a garment for this project. For this
part of the project we used Sketchup which is a designing app used to create our
prints. For me I found this one a little more exciting than the wire base
technology for the simple reason that it was a little more design based;
however I did feel that it was a lot more frustrating to actually get it to
print. When it came to the 3D printing our group had had our theme that we
thought was fit for this project which was based around blood circulation and
body autonomy, nonetheless I still struggled to see how this could still work
within a piece and how we could add both elements together. So in conclusion I
still felt that this project for me was just a little too confusing as technology
was something I wasn’t completely confident in which lead to a lot of struggles
within the project and not much of a final outcome.
