my wobbler.

I have a few minutes to spare, so I thought I'd just show you what sort of stuff they get me to work on here at Swinburne. These examples are for the Technology for Print class, and this assignment's aim is to create a shelf wobbler for a product. I choose fresh pasta (because I love it so much) and this is what I'm gonna show to class today.

Planned Obsolescence, Perceived Obsolescence

Here's a very interesting video about consumerism and how product designers sometimes design stuff to break, so that we'll go and buy a new product.

The makers of this clip didn't want the clip to be embedded anywhere (assholes), so I'll give you the link here.

HDC002 Methods of Investigation: Sean Adams + Design History from Dori Tunstall on Vimeo.

Have been sick with a tummy virus for the last couple of days and spent yesterday entirely in bed. Which meant that I missed class, something that reminded me about being 7 and being upset about being sick from school for the first time. Good thing that uni has Blackboard, an online platform where most things from class and other discussions are available. Apparently, last night, they had been watching this video of Sean Adams. I found it pretty interesting and thought I might share it with you. Enjoy!
