(MID-TERM)

How is dialog created?
In order to create dialogue there must be something in common between the two objects, something that reflects the same attitude or physical appearance of the other object.
How is a sense of space/place defined?
To define a sense of place or space the space must be the same size as a certain aspect of the project. For instance, with this particular project, depending on the way the person manipulated their bristol board, the space could be the same size as the bristol board. The space could also be the same size as the spaces between the skewers, or any other apparent aspect of the project.
How is the idea of system generated?
For these projects involving the twelve skewers and twelve pieces of bristol board there are many systems involved. There is a system collaboration between the skewers and he bristol board, between the pieces of bristol board themselves, and between the skewers themselves. Whatever form or function these objects are creating is a system working together.
How does the joinery support the project concept/strategies?
Joinery is a very important part of this project. All the pieces have to work together in order to create a functioning system. The skewers hold the bristol board up, while the bristol board supports and steadies the skewers. There are many different ways in which people could manipulate their resources to create a new joint that functions in a different way.
How is scale utilized in the project?
The main function of scale in this project is that it helps to define the two specific spaces. It can make what seems to be three spaces, into two. In some projects the scale is in relation to the skewers, while in others the scale is in relation to the bristol board. Others are in relation to the spaces created.
How do two-dimensional images add to the understanding of the project?
The two dimensional portrayals of the project help you, even as the creator, to see the project in a different way. You may realize that the project you created is not actually what you envisioned and that there are some things you need to change to make your creation the way you want it to look. Seeing things from a new fresh perspective sometimes allows you to see more.
How did the initial project idea evolve?
For my project specifically I stuck with my first creation, with some small manipulations. I bent the bristol board in certain spots to emphasize the form that I created.
