The basics 1

  • April 6th, 2005

Pick a medium you are learning or are trying to rethink. This can be a physical medium, coding language or gestural language. For 2D medium, represent 3-Dimensionality.

- Create a Circle, Square and Triangle as frames.
- Create a Circle, Square and Triangle as a solid plane.
- Create a Sphere, Cube, Pyramid, Cone as hollow shapes
- Create a Sphere, Cube, Pyramid, Cone as filled shapes

Questions
- When you created the frames, did you carve them from one piece or assemble segments or did your approach vary for the different shapes?
- For filled shapes, why does this matter? when doesn’t it?
- Are there any mediums that doing 3-D that are filled or solid is prohibitively time consuming? Are you sure or are you giving up?
- What was frustraiting to you about the process? About the result?
- What do you like? What was enjoyable?
