Midterm Presentation

Feedback from Mentors, January 27

Feedback from Aristarco


Installation: Museum or in some kind of interactive space
Recycling, call of plastics in the ocean, how to connect with fish in the space?
Reflection: Why want to do it? Workshops as performance; engage with people to connect Fish—how to connect with the recycling part?
Connect with textiles/ and plastic bottles In Columbia: cutting plastic bottles; making weaving bags/accessories. They connect old tradition with recycling
Mobiles: bring liveness and structure. Piece of art/how to distribute in a space—put as a mobile


Bauhaus: connected elements


Which material should you use? People can start to weave, perhaps using metal pieces


Fish—how they navigate—fish as an object. Present as a figure. Interactive project—fish, skeleton important figure in Greece


The story—what is the story? Arguments, pieces, take the time by myself to think about the most important part. How can you organize this story? The more clear it is for me the more clear it will be for others. Story telling, my main concepts, how will I integrate them into my story.I want to put in a museum—argument about recycling/upcycling, and the sea.


This is the first part—how to navigate fish in the ocean. Soft robotics—moving fishes. Don’t add more for now.


When collect things and concepts, find the constraints. Nice elements: more of an experience. How do I see this?

Feedback from Stephanie

Great to have other references, more examples. Levels of mobiles for babies. Balance. Simple to complex. Isabella –made robots with woods, articulated sculptures—interactive—very smart mechanical techniques. More concerning ocean and recycling: crochet corral reef project. For depth of color in the oceans. Aristarco: enthusiasm: panic: great project; good ideas. First prize. Show the path. Need to focus. Narrow to one idea. Doesn’t matter. Will 100 Years of Solitude: Focus: potential. More references. Countries have traditions of mobiles. Interesting to see how they approach. Fish leather: --resources; stretched. Library of materials. Fish leather—make it into quilts.

Story Telling Tutorial: Katrina Biliouri; Melissa Fleming Story Telling Outline Nancy Duarte: What is…contrast with what could be…the shape of a great talk http://www.speechinminutes.com/#google_vignette

Aristarco Cortes Engineers, can go deep into the data, make sure to close the argument with more than data

Put the audience into Can start with the problem Can start with the Why?

Multiple parts: a. A video, which can be a movie, a how to, or a feeling/vibe - that entirely depends on your project scope/aim b. the slides/presentation - articulating why / what / how c. A booklet / thesis / overview d. Your documentation

Ratio_ hard data to storytelling? Think about the audience. If like-minded people, have the right balance.

How to present? WHY—GOAL—PROBLEM SOLVING---lead into the video or video first? Person: present, then video…

Art presentation: maybe a video that is a vibe…

words and videos that stand out

Clear and simple

Website: words to minutes

My Story: I have noticed that people do not understand that plastic and polyester are the same thing. I see that my students do not know specifics about textiles, cotton versus polyester. I note that my students want structured experiences that contain choices to develop their creativity.

I see that hands-on endeavor is trending. Students want engagement with tactile experiences.

Think about your ending—how do I want my audience to feel after my presentation?

Art collective: working together to create a new reality

Big Ideas: rethink trash—into an art collective, to : empower;

THE HERO’S JOURNEY: in storytelling. The problem becomes human. Make it the audience’s journey or your/my journey

Why: is for , what is the why? We see authenticity in telling your WHY? What is your purpose, cause, belief? The way we think act communicate—inspired leaders think/act from the inside out.

Why is my idea different than something else?

Need a balance: why/who/facts

The rule of 3: Rooted in psychology. Storytelling, and even rhythm. Make it conversational. Writing for the ear is different than writing for the eye.

Alex Notes: stop focusing on your age!!!! Knowing what focus point to amplify

Start in a way that captures attention: how do you make your audience listen more? First 30 seconds are the most important. How do we capture people’s attention?

Write your introduction, on a slide: problem solution as fast as possible

Ask a question/give the problem—then give the answer

The audience’s journey:

Old versus new reality— Our solution:

Tell stories—not just facts…

STRONG OPENING:

Write your opening—write your ending—to feel prepared

3 best practices for the perfect pitch: Key thing: content—too much/too overwhelming. Keep things minimal Who/what/why—3 aspects

All boils down to: how/what/why

Common problem—straight to solution/future, no problem today Preparedness vs passion Receptivity vs confidence No storytelling/why of the idea People presenting to—they are investing in YOU Every time: public speaking

THIS IS A TOOLBOX—find the tool that works best for you Identify/build/rethink/restructure

CLARITY: storytelling/persuasion/delivery/inspiration/design

Persuasion: how do I tell my audience that what I’m bringing forward is different How will your idea stand out? Why should people care? How did you begin? What is my story? What is my goal? What comes from your heart? What is AUTHETIC to you?

WHAT IS YOUR BIG IDEA/THROUGHLINE in one sentence? If you had one sentence… Throughline needs to be there throughout the narrative. When it is more than one idea, it is confusing. Every pitch: has one main sentence… The audience must be in the center of your communication…ABC…Audience before content—who am I talking to? What is their experience? Depending on the audience, adjust your content to your audience so you can INSPIRE them.

**So storytelling is about having a clarity on the topic and use emotion has a vehicle transfert the information !!

Narrative: how to teach students: my project is about teaching students how to do this—make the students understand the problem—students learn these things/realize the problem The techniques: part of design of a workshop. Structure the workshop. https://youtube.com/shorts/isVPW_WU1cA?si=4lo7sAlL97Qk07WL DIY keychain rings https://bauhauskooperation.com/wissen/das-bauhaus/koepfe/biografien/biografie-detail/person-1444

Mobile: as a teaching tool. Having a demonstration. Fish and mobiles—an installation/presenting in a space More free tool—finish the object through which I can teach. Showing people how to have fun and to learn.

Adriana Decide what exactly I’m trying to do Interesting: something with the dress Interesting: embedded grids in the bioplastic: contrast with the story

Because final project is coming: start to think about the integration. Sense of building these; go from the paper; integrate the fishes with all the elements Somehow reflect the story I’m talking about. Need a video; story; visually; the key points; plastics go to the sea Make It very clear— Transparency—in the sea you have the foam; work with foamy materials; Bauhaus: Oscar Schlemer—worked with transition from dancing/movement to clothes/geometric/work with organic shapes; pictures are artists are balancing; harmony in the design I’m doing.

Now: shapes Color palette/shapes/different mobiles

Aristarco: Advanced of the concept. Question: want a mobile—

Question: big goal; learning and teaching; big and interesting; Chicken and egg. Same time: don’t lose all the information I’m working from. I draw this—idea to object. NOW: start to shape it.

Make it and document it. Good information I can use. Try to explore. I will finish the mobile, them document it. Goal: exhibition. If this about teaching, try to make this first step.

Mobiles: remove walls from junk people. Let them play with the thing. Beautiful images, paly with the materials in a light in a garden.

Message: through this piece of art. Communicate about recycling/biomaterials/building schematics; learning; Try to present three strong concepts

When communicate it/present it/clear/help Try to focus on/while doing biomaterials/another layer of sustainability in my lectures/kinematics/visual effects with the lights with the material/building

Anastasia: orient the project not as mobile of bioplastics/the project ios workshops to the communitu.

footnote fabrication files

Fabrication files are a necessary element for evaluation. You can add the fabrication files at the bottom of the page and simply link them as a footnote. This was your work stays organised and files will be all together at the bottom of the page. Footnotes are created using [ ^ 1 ] (without spaces, and referenced as you see at the last chapter of this page) You can reference the fabrication files to multiple places on your page as you see for footnote nr. 2 also present in the Gallery.

Code Example

Use the three backticks to separate code.

// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power the board
void setup() {
  // initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.
  pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
}

// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);   // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);    // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
}
