Form to formation (f2f) was an amazing project for me . as the name it self explain the meaning that's formation of form. with the help of this project i learned so much tips and tricks , learned new shapes and forms . most interesting part was worked with POP
I learnt few interesting techniques like extrusion , subtraction and addition with the help of my these learnings now i am able to relate shapes around me. I will surely take forward my these learnings in my future projects.
ILLUSTRATED GLOSSARY
SHAPE : form of an object or its outline ; eg Rectangle,
FORM : A3 dimensional object
EXTRUSION : pulling or extruding something into a 3 dimensional form
PLATONIC SOLIDS/SHAPE : any of the five geometric solids whose faces are all identical, regular polygons meeting at the same three-dimensional angles.
ABSTRACT : something that does not attempt to represent an accurate depiction of a visual reality but instead use shapes, colors, forms and gestural marks to achieve its effect or theme
CARVING: to cut out something from solid to form out something new
ARCHIMEDEAN SHAPES - a complex version of platonic solids
FORMS IN OUR SURRONDINGS
When i started observing the objects around me and notice almost all the objects had addition , subtraction and extrusion
1 ADDITION
2. SUBTRACTION
3. EXTRUSION
Characteristics and Properties of Plaster of Paris
It is light in weight powdered like thing which is used to make hard objects generally used in building
Plaster of Paris is easy to spread and level.
It gives a decorative interior finish.
It mixes up easily with water.
When it react with water a lots of heat comes out that is because of exothermic reactions
Advantages
Its easy to make shapes
It mix easily with water and easy to spread
Disadvantages
We have to add water in a fix amount otherwise it is not fixed properly
My work with POP








FINAL OUTCOME


Nikita, I am happy to see that most of your Learner's Log posts are done.
However, you have compromised the quality - they seem to be done to tick box on a to-do list, especially the ones from cycle-2. I hope you will find time to look into these and make improvements.
You posts do not go beyond reporting "what you did?" and talking about things that are obvious. The idea of a Learer's Log is to dive a bit deeper into our experience and extract some realisations that can deepen our understanding of the topic. Whenever you are making a point, try to establish a cause and effect relationship - what must have caused this? What will happen as…
