At COFA they encourage you to draw. Everything. I dont. I put everything on my mac. It just works better for me. Text, info, experiments, materials, inspiration etc. This is some of it.
Now I finally feel like the project is actually a thing. SO MUCH TO DO. Won't be sleeping for a while. Until the paints arrive I have a bunch to do:
WAITING:
- create the designs (as well as the colours/variations)
- borrow more screens for screen printing these designs (and clean them all off)
- expose and prepare the screens (it used to be $8 a screen for emulsion...not sure now)
- figure out what to print on (and also purchase/steal/commandeer these materials)
- figure out how to frame, hang, situate etc display (and also purchase/steal/commandeer these materials)
ARRIVED:
- paint like a ninja
- video time-lapse (borrow friends' camera...which the HD turbo charged greatness)
- edit said video (maybe an advert?)
SECONDARIES:
- re-name "I'd Tap That" to a lame, obvious, explanatory, descriptive name
- visual identity
- website
- product manual (life cycle analysis, use, info)
- packaging
- presentation, speech, powerpoint, look-book
- 3D render the student accommodation and emulate the display in situ (aftereffect that up)
What has been repeated is that this project is supposed to be a read-to-sell prototype. So more things I must investigate:
- a "real" way to make and affect the heating elements (to alter designs)
- a "real" effective material that would withstand the displays being touched and used
- life cycle analysis
