Week 11

This is just showing the direct interaction with the model. I will try to film another version of it in B1 with distant interaction tomorrow.

For this, as the spectator won't personally interact with the model i think placing it on the floor won't be too bad. E.g. i think it will lose its sense of scale through the webcamera.

Week 11

Model fitted into a corner would be super nice. It gives less surface area which means it can be more dense / detailed compared to a freestanding object. Ended up doing a wider one instead.

I've glued / welded together most of the object. Two gussets where too small so these need to be cut again on Tuesday. Unfortunately, I think the object won't be able to stand up on its own, so I will probably have to cut some support help it stand up.

Will update this post with the process more before Tuesday. How the gussets where made.

Used Pepakura to get the fold angle between each panel. Then used this data to create two different gussets in Fusion 360, one "mountain fold" and one "valley fold".

The gussets ended up being really small. It ended up this way as i put them close to the edge of each panel, also i thought if they where too big they would interfere with the rear projection. If i put them in the center instead they probably could've been more stable. I am not sure if its better to connect them in the middle of each part with one big gusset or closer to the edge with one on each side-
