exactly that.

 

I have to edge everything with extra paper because i am so messy. My working conditions are not ideal - so untidy right now. I need a bigger desk/any desk at all (i am working on the top of my plan drawers)

i'm working on a zero-budget makeover of this closet into a tiny little office.

 

However, i can't find ANYTHING that will work for brackets for this shelf. It originally went above the clothes rod, but it's too narrow to stay up there. The lights are wound around a re-purposed curtain rod, but that rod won't support the shelf itself.

 

i'm looking for creative solutions/ideas for brackets - and it has to support my printer/scanner.

I've been using maxwell render for rhino which is an amazing upgrade to my workflow. Since it runs in the background as a render server and the plugin just sends files to the server to be rendered, you can keep modelling while decently-presentable images cook in the background. Keeps a much more aesthetically pleasing trace of the project's development than a set of screenshots-- that's for sure.

My first attempt at slippers!

Yay, me!

These were my Xmas gift to my father. The ivory yarn is a heavy wool, and the dark stripes are "Berella 4" in navy and burgundy. I had to hold the two colours together to equal the heaviness of the white wool.

Crocheted in back loop slip stitch, they are very stretchy and soft - like knitted ribbing.

The striped foot was worked flat and the seam is down the centre - creating the "V" pattern.

The cuff was also worked flat and sewn into a tube, then sewn to the foot.

My own design.

They fit my Dad perfectly!

grey = kitchen and dining room accent wall.

green = dining room

 

The grey seems a bit dark for the kitchen.

As you know, I like to keep myself busy with lots of art projects. So after deciding that my list of things-to-do wasn’t long enough, I decided to embark on a new project. Here is a sneak-peek. What’s it going to be? Don’t worry, everything will be revealed by the end of the week! :)

I was playing it safe, but the bottom panels were way too big, so they are much more to scale now as shown on the top piece. I still am not pleased how the satin dark edge ended up so puckered. ( This is why I avoid satin, I remember too late. XD )

All the interior tiles were down at this point, leaving us with the exterior cut tiles to complete the room. From the time we laid the first tile until this stage took about one hour.

This is the first project that I've traded my Superior Drafting Application* for autocad. Not an amazing piece of software, but better than I thought it was. 7 says now till the final review and I am designing bathrooms, re-re-re-configuring cut&fill, just now thinking about elevations and generally doing all the stuff I should have already done.

I’m currently making two plush dolls for a special project, so I thought I’d share some in progress pics and talk about making them. :)

***PIC #4***

Then I sew everything together that I can with the sewing machine (it makes my life easier!) and I start stuffing body parts.

yep, still working on this. i scanned in my pencils from my sketchbook, and then printed them out in blue, and inked over them, twice. (second one there was inked via brushpen), then scanned the inks, dropped out the blue and printed out the inks.

 

then i started on the color, but i'm not all that happy with the way the markers work on this hard printer paper. i think i'm going to try to print out the inks on copic paper, hope my printer can figure that out.

 

still, close to done.

Eye detection & localization following face tracking, using Haar cascades. total calc time 7 milliseconds, including face tracking. Once eyes are located, other facial features are much easier to find, as the eyes divide the head (good old painter's rules) and define an important facial axis. Note "friend" behind right shoulder made from painter's tape, helping to deliberately confuse the face tracker (works!).

I had just put sealer on 1/2 his lower body in this pic, that's why he's drying upside down. ;)

Green for the whole room - the grey is the accent wall that also will bleed into the kitchen.

Batches? We don't need no stinkin' batches!

 

But seriously ladies and germs... batching is definitely the way to go, once you know what you're doing it's not much longer to build three instead of one.

Building a parametric rig to control the skeleton of my housing project this semester. This slide explains how it works and the two previous images show more variations produced with the same system. Once I develop this a bit more it's going to be time to merge it with the earlier experiments in applying cellular geometry to a surface-- skeleton meets skin.

 

All in all this work represents my attempt to tread the line between my personal interests and those of my critic, who is definitely more concerned with the structural and pragmatic aspects of housing.

Happy New Year 2016...

This is my 1st cardboard mechanical toy project for the new year... I decided to document the stages in its production...

It is designed by a high school engineering teacher in England (for a wood-shop class), but I am using cardboard at home in California...

The studio assignment this semester is to design a rather large series of housing blocks (GDR much?). I've taken as systematic an approach as possible-- trying to walk the line between abstract and modular. In other words, can a housing project with all its myraid variations and demands be developed like a set of APIs* between central features like plumbing, public gathering, dwelling, etc?

 

We will see. Review is tuesday.

 

*The API model seems most conceptually appropriate to my earlier investigations into parametric control systems. Still mulling this over...
