  "Soul transfer" "Soul transfer" is a piece that is a representation of the ideas of life, death, and reincarnation. The skull represents death and past life, On the other hand, the head represents life itself and in turn, new life. What blends these 2 things together is the liquid pouring from the eyes of the skull into the head; a movement from the past life to the new, the 'soul' if you will. The black and the white contrast between the liquid pouring is the bad and the good that was done in the past life moving on into the new life. It is a look at the concept of karma but also the balance of yin and yang. The gold liquid in the head represents the purity that occurs when you blend good and bad as all people are born pure, but not perfect. I used 3 objects from Thingiverse to create this piece, this is what they looked like on the website: Critique response: When doing the critique, the work that the majority of people chose as the most interesting for ...

Remix Culture For this project we were assigned to create 10 concept pieces that uses the ides of "Remix Culture". This is an art style that encourages artists and creators to edit, splice, and combine preexisting ideas, icons, and materials to form something new. In Remix culture, no object is in one permanent state, instead, artists are able to reframe the narrative of whatever medium they are working with (song, artwork, design, object, etc.) into something completely new. This is done through the means of deconstruction, transformation, contrasting, and re-using other media. Remix culture is heavily used within storytelling, Rap music, graffiti, and more. 1. "Foot Stool" https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1269059 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2152828 This first concept came about as a visual pun to me. I had first thought to turn a book into a chair, but then I found the feet and thought of foot stools! I find that books and magazines find their way onto foot...

  This object is one I found within the documentary, unfortunately, I was unable to figure out the brand/creator. What inspired me to recreate this object was how it was framed and portrayed in the film. Dieter Rams was describing the characteristics of what makes up a "good design" and in the end of his description he said that "good design is as little design as possible". I was intrigued by the simplicity of the object shown on screen and how it was used as the example for this last point Dieter Rams made. 

 I present to you.....Random House! I will hopefully get better at making complex objects soon!
