Assignment #01. OBJECTIFIED: RESPONSE

In this assignment I decided to try modelling Karim Rashid's
Veuve Clicquot love seat. It was rather difficult to re-create because of limitations in
TinkerCAD for organic meshes, but it was a fun way of learning this minimalist program.

As seen from image above it was briefly shown behind the designer, I got really

curious as to what it was. the shape was rather unique but it reminded me of a tulip.

The love seat was designed in partnership with the Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin

a champagne house based in Reims, France.

Below are some screenshots of my attempt at recreating the design using TinkerCAD.

I had a lot of trouble on this one, analizing the over all shape of the love seat it seemed like two ovoid forms. It seemed to be then hollowed out using the same conjoined forms.

after some minor tweaks, it just seemed a little too round.

PO1: The Bespoke Object, Refining.

Week 2: I pretty much spent the entire week modifying the model. Mostly to make it usable for patterning, and maybe to also have it ready for animation, but I might take a different route on that. It was possible to just use the draft model, but working from experience anything that is curved on an inflatable would have a tendency to straighten. Because air volume inside the soft structure would have a tendency to push on all directions. To mitigate this, I instead opted for a flatter structure that resembles a crocodile more than a salamander. I do appreciate the whimsy of the initial draft. Tools Used: Nomad Sculpt, Blender, Rhino, Cozy Blanket. When designing models I tend to jump between software, Its easier to design soft and organic structures using mesh based modelling or sculpting. And I happen to have a variety of choices to choose from, each with a with a specific strength but none can do it best. Below is my workflow on Nomad Sculpt which is an I...

Interactive Circuit: LED Panner

MADT 304 week 2: In this week we where tasked with wiring up an interactive circuit that can control multiple LEDs. Class discussion also introduced the use of "if" statements which allow the use of Boolean logical operators(>/</>=/<=/==/&&) in order to filter data flow or command events. Using a Potentiometer and mapping out thresholds with if statements we can pan LEDs. Code : float potMapped; void setup() { // put your setup code here, to run once: Serial.begin(9600); pinMode(8, OUTPUT); pinMode(10, OUTPUT); pinMode(11, OUTPUT); pinMode(12, OUTPUT); pinMode(13, OUTPUT); } void loop() { // put your main code here, to run repeatedly: potMapped = map(analogRead(A1), 0, 1023, 0, 255); if (analogRead(A1) >= 0 && analogRead(A1) = 250 && analogRead(A1) 420 && ...

Relay Circuit: Arduino + Lamp

Simple Relay circuit made for Arduino to control a lamp with a photocell. It uses a simple digital pin out to send a signal to trigger the relay and power on the lamp. Its similar to the blink setup code but instead of a small LED you are controlling another object with a larger voltage.
