Timeline [Second Idea and research]

I had thought am I going to change the whole idea but the lunar calendar was quite interesting. The calendar is based upon the monthly cycles of the Moon's phases and the lunar phase is regular so I decided to keep the lunar things but change to making using with lunar phase.

1. USER : Asian People -> Korean People -> Gardner
2. IDEA : Lunar Calendar/Clock -> Lunar Phase Clock

I researched lunar phases to not make a mistake when I chose the user. Korean use lunar phases for gardening, for example, people plant the seeds of Chinese cabbage in summer when the new moon rises on the seventh lunar month. As I first did research, I mentioned that Korean use the lunar calendar for Gimjang, the period of making Kimchi, and this is because the cabbages are cultivated by using the lunar phase and lunar calendar. I found out people who are gardeners even are not Asian people, they often use lunar phases for gardening.

The reason why I chose the name of the clock as 29.5 days clock is that the lunar phase the true lenght varies throughout the year. But they are 29 days and some hours.

After choosing the idea, I think about how to make and express the clock well. When I received a unit guide and see the reference for the project, I was impressed by Maarten Baas's work since I was interested in video artwork after visiting Nam June Paik exhibition. When I first saw his work, I thought his work is performance art but it was filmed artwork. I wanted to make the clock by using video.

[ from mid point presentation ] I asked 4 questions in the midpoint presentation. Which one do you think good/convenient for users to count the number?(on my sketch) - The reward/benefits section will be a good method to get more people using reusable cups - Hi Min! I think the staff one and scanning the qr code is quite convenient. People counting by themselves might mean people cheat and over exaggerate how many times they've used it Merge 1&2 100% - I'm not sure, I can see the dilemma, merge 1 & 2 would mean people can't exaggerate (would using one qr code that everyone scans in the store better than a sticker, to save paper?), but if people make their own drink then they can't enter the use, so I would say 3 might be the best I guess you could merge 3 and some elements of 2 as having a qr code could remind people to enter their use when they are in the store - I think it's difficult to have users count their uses themselves. It might be best for ho...

Weeks in Review [1]

23RD SEPTEMBER 2019 I learned how drawing can be related to systems. At first, I was quite confused since I have not thought that I can do a drawing about systems without computer and machine. Because the word 'system' I thought was directly related to computer. I learned the exact meaning of system, which is a set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or an interconnecting network. We especially drew 'complex system' a lot, meaning one in which the individual elements interact to create something that is greater than the sum of its parts. First of all, we drew some straight line but it looked like chaos and disorderly. When we drew something that is constant and orderly, they looked complex system. After that, the tutor organized 5 teams and instructed teams to make the rule to draw system. Ours were to draw triangles connecting each three points but do not touch the sides of triangle and fill the colour. I learned 'emergence' from this ac...

Weeks in Review [2]

30TH SEPTEMBER 2019 - 7TH OCTOBER 2019 After the first briefing, I got 1:1 tutorial with Oliver on Monday 30th Sep. What I need to was thinking about the first project but I misunderstood because I forgot to read unit guide. I told him honestly I do not know what should I do and he gave some advice about first project. After doing first tutorial with Oliver, I began to read first project contents and references on unit guide. At first I was interested in the system which made by coding rather than analog one. However, there was limit to create what I want. So I changed my mind to make by using drawing the system by hand. Firstly, I set up the rules using 3 types of shape which were circle, rectangular and triangle. However, I found that the system was quite similar with another system which made by https://conditionaldesign.org/ . Before modification After modification So I changed again using three colours of lines and do...
