      Project #5 is all about planning for the 3D real-life paper model that we will construct for our next class. Using Rhinoceros, we created a minimum of 8 separate 3D pieces and proceeded to unfold them into 2D templates.  Form 1:      3 Cylinders varying in size to replicate a paint bottle. Form 2/3:      3 decagon pillars varying in size to replicate the bottle portion of a soap dispenser. 3 cylinders varying in size to replicate the lid and pump of a soap dispenser.  Form 4      1 hexagon pillar and 1 cylinder to replicate an incense holder that I own. 1 cylinder to replicate an incense stick. Form 5      1 hollowed-out rectangular prism to replicate a bookshelf. Form 6      2 hollowed-out cylinders to replicate the lipstick holder and lid. 1 slanted-ended cylinder to replicate the lipstick. Form 7/8      1 round-ended rectangular prism and 1 hollowed-out cylinder to...

They liked the fantastical element and story that they created after looking at my object. So, because of that, I made my composition depict a story with the scene of the arrows being created and tested. Someone also suggested that having the rose replace the feather of the arrows would make more sense as an arrow. Because of that, I thought it would be interesting if I could have the two different types of arrows present.     Remix culture is essentially just mixing/combining two or more objects to create a new object. Since I had decided to mashup roses with a bow and arrow, I believe that my project counts as re...
