Workshop 4 prototyping , we had to be very creative in this workshop being given different activities and using pasta to represent the taste and smell of a fruit. Unfortunately i did not get along with this workshop. I was getting very frustrated trying to use pasta to represent the different elements of the fruit, resulting in lots of broken pasta being all over the floor and me taking out my anger onto a drum kit.
I can see how this links into the internet of things and everyday objects though, we are tasked with thinking outside the box with building our product. This workshops aim was to get use to think in a new way and be creative with the everyday materials we had in this case pasta. although I was unable to get the most out of this workshop due to the way i think, after reflecting on it I do see its relevance to the module.
What i learnt:
thinking: may way of thinking did not pair up well in this workshop
pasta : pasta brakes very easily
