Week 2: Prototyping
I found the readings to be really useful this week since they all address one of the fundamentals of design: prototyping. “Prototyping” is often a term thrown around by us designers, but sometimes we need to take a step back and really ask ourselves what a prototype is actually doing. Every project and every designer …

Prototyping
Prototypes 1. “What Do Prototypes Protoype?” Stephen Houde and Charles Hill Houde and Hill defined the triangle diagram of prototyping in sections of: Role, Look and Feel, and Implementation, that are later connected by integration. These sections seem to be rudimentary for any prototype, the text seems to be quite dated actually, since it was …

Adding a jack and a potentiometer to a sound-making toy to control the volume, and amplify it. (In a way I want to distort the sound entirely instead) For this 7×7 project I wanted to make a circuit or an electricity related experiment. Forrest Mims III is one of my greatest inspirations, since I was …

week2 readings (prototyping)
The gist of the readings seem to be more or less the same; which is a discussion of what prototyping is, the language of prototyping and different types of prototyping. What I found most interesting about all the readings – in particular, ‘cardboard computers’, is the near constant use of the word ‘tools’ (as opposed …
