Project 2 Blog Post
There is no weekly assignment this week, only the blog post for your project 2. Make sure you include these main sections:
Design Process:
Describe the design process of your project. Explain your decisions that lead to the visual appearance of your work. Make sure you include iterations, things you tried but didn’t work, and conclusions you drew. Discuss what you have found of value to build upon in your project, and in what ways your project is different or better.
Technical Development:
In this section, you are expected to explain the inner workings of your Grasshopper definition in detail. In your own words, and with the help of screenshots and/or possibly diagrams, break apart the logic behind your definition, illustrating how different sections are functionally related. Describe the technical challenges that you faced, solutions you found as well as compromises you had to make.
What could have been implemented better and what changes you would make if you had the chance to do it all over again. What discoveries did you make along the way? Be as detailed and specific as you can.
Reflection and Future Development
Summarize your conclusions and critical reflections on your work. Consider how your project evolved. Which parts of the project work well and which ones are you less satisfied with. Reflect on feedback received from peer students and instructor. Also demonstrate what you would like to implement further and how you would continue to explore in future work any of the ideas your project engaged.
Credits & References
Include in this section any technical help that your project received other than the course material (e.g. tutorials you might have watched or grasshopper definitions you found online) as well as references and projects that inspired your work conceptually and visually. Include links and images if that applies.

After the field trip, you will write a blog entry summarizing the experience by recounting the most interesting things you saw and, more importantly, what you learned in this trip. You should also reflect on your prior experience working with digital fabrication for your first two projects and how you would approach project 3 after what you learned from this trip. On Nov 15, we will have another field trip to the China 3D Printing Cultural Museum in Shanghai. You can include in this post your thoughts on this experience too. The deadline for this post is any time during the next weeks of classes and it will be graded as one of the weekly assignments.
