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.
