Thingummy Bob


Based on my final sketch and from meeting with vita, I came up with the following model. Our biggest research question/ interest is projecting onto organic/blob-ular surfaces so I tried to model the top half as one solid flowing piece while keeping shapes distinct enough to separate them visually. The far left model is the wireless. It's shape is based on the relief/perspective sculpture reference we looked at last week.


This render was to show ways the same model above, could be disassembled and moved around. It was roughly done and perhaps in to many pieces but serves more to get the basic idea of how these smaller objects can come together on the central box to from the thingummybob.


Vita suggested it would be a good idea to draw directly on top of one of the renders to represent 'projected' images. It worked out pretty well. Top from right to left: Sewing machine plugs into pipes/steampunk styled clock which connects to lazy suzan and then wireless. Middle: a conveyor belt formed from discharged bullet shells (from sewing machine) which flow right to left. Bottom right to left: Pump pulsing up and down with sewing machine. Guts/pipes of the machine projected. Furnace that powers the machine/reference to crematorium. Steam stacks and barrel that is catching the bullets as they fall from above.
