As my course is "Designer Maker", the knowledge of the materials is an important part of the competences and to have the possibility of develop a mode of reflection on it help to realize if the material in use is appropriate or there can be others more suitable to deliver the right message. To be able to look directly at the material, touch it and feel it instead of search it only on the internet has more potential.
For the activity in place, the group I was with chose as object a bowl made by dust.
To be able to talk and reflect about it it is required a research about the material and the technique used for it. The librarian gave us some books with other examples on it so that we could have a more completed idea of the possibility for the material.
After have done it with a random project at the library, I tried to use the scheme with my project.
