Interim Deadline Looms...

As the deadline approaches for the Interim, there is an increased occupation of the studio, workshop, and CAD lab.  Please keep in mind that others work in these environments, so it is advisable to keep your spaces relatively clean (and odour-free) so that others feel comfortable drafting/modeling/sleeping in the spaces.

Time Lapse of the First Night of Model Making

Once again Section ONE serves as the vanguard of the studio, taking the initiative to get their site model done well and on time (more or less).  Though Wednesday evening may have been a long night, it was worth it as it allowed students to quickly move on to develop their design work for the upcoming Project Two deadline.

A note to the other sections, this time lapse was done where each frame was taken every 3 seconds (and the video is 24 fps) so between the two videos there are several hours of elapsed time! Thankfully Section ONE will be out of the chaos in the fabrication workshop as the deadline approaches... until they get to their individual models...

DMZ Visit

Today Section ONE had a great opportunity to get a tour of the DMZ at Ryerson University.
We were fortunate to have not only toured the facility but also get one on one sessions with two great organizations in the DMZ, ARB Labs and TAD (Tactile Audio Displays).  Here are a few highlights of Section ONE experiencing the facility.

Section ONE

These are the members of Section ONE from ASC401 during the Winter 2013 term.

Over the next few months these students will use this platform to showcase their design work as it evolves from concept to developed design proposal.  The collective pool of their research, insights, and design iterations will ensure that their respective designs will be as robust and developed as possible.
