Transforming Things into Other Things
















wrapped-my mattress is wrapped with sheets
luminous-my best friend
gnarly- the hair within my brush
edible- yogurt
wicked- my aviator sunglasses
was alive- my birthday flower
unexpected sound- loudest alarm clock ever!
could spill- water bottle
smell- room mate's foot
fleeting and temporal- my dreams
astonishing-coffee, and its effects
scattered-m&m's
transformed by wind- blue ribbon
soft- brown pillow
buried- my socks under comforter
cold- statistics can be cold hearted
distasteful- dirty sponge
stretched- rubber band
smeared-lip gloss on wall
awkward- my bra
6 feet- my bed
I thought to do my material invention purely from things found in my dorm room, and i could not believe the many weird and freakish things that I found in the process. I used my bed to collaborate all of the elements. I had trouble transforming some of the stuff into other stuff, I felt like the majority of my project was kind of boring and too literal. Everything is easy to understand yet that made it not as interesting in a sense, so i sat back and thought of some things i could do to mix it u a bit. Thins was also hard for me, I think I executed the project well, but I'm not very happy with the creative factor, I would have liked it to be less literal and more thought provoking. Overall i enjoyed collecting different things and incorporating them all together. I took the space on my bed, and created the feeling of chaos! I used the comforter to my advantage. My sleeping space which is normally a place of relaxation and calmness was turned completely around into total craziness.
