Task 4: Models and Direction

We have narrowed our approach leaving behind the idea of a moving garden bed. It seems that we have arrived upon an agreeable form, at least for the moment. After talking about flexible materials for model making I went rummaging through scrap material and found a healthy supply of polystyrene strips. Substituting the flexible plastic for bimetal or memory shape alloy we made a quick sketch model in order to map out the movement and better understand what we are doing and why.




We began to apply this movement to a building and soon realized we were not all on the same page.


It may be getting late in the game, but we need to go back to the drawing board- and show each other what we are thinking rather than just talking about it.
