My project began with many questions [ask]. What origami do I want to make? What origami can I make? How do I make a simple circuit? Will I be able to make it cohesive? I started looking up various basic origami objects and decided to make an arrow (I thought an arrow would be cool to see lit up) [imagine]. The arrow proved far more difficult and far less stand-up-able than I had hoped (as seen in my yellow and blue discarded attempts) [build]. So I decided to settle for a more simple abstract form. Sometimes you need to simplify your expectations for yourself when you’re just beginning to learn something [evaluate]. I think this decision to simplify my project and focus more on meeting expectations over something more extravagant/difficult was the hardest part of the project for me. From here began a lot of trial and error attempts to figure out how to make my origami light up. Eventually the best decision for me was to ask for help [share/ask]. Once I had a better understanding of circuits and how to properly use the copper tape was able to begin thinking about how I want my object to look [imagine]. From here I began using the materials and deciding how I like them best/how they work together in a practical and visual way [build/evaluate]. I think this was my favorite part of the project. Once I had a solid understanding of material I was able to take a more aesthetic approach towards the design of the copper tape and the LED light. Thus came the final part of the project, looking at everyone else’s project and sharing my own [share]. Once I was able to walk around and see everyone else’s work it became clear that we all had various strengths and weaknesses when it came to this project yet everyone was able to pull something together out of their confusion that was pretty cool. This project, to me, resembles a sort of conceptual hybridity of old and new artistic practices that I have tried to work with in the past. Such as in Design: Form I was required to make a 3D printed form and combine it with something I made in the wood shop. I could imagine using this project in a 5th grade classroom (that’s when I first learned how to make circuits) and pair up with the general education teacher to make it a combined art and science lesson. The students could create their origami in the art classroom and carry on to their general ed class to add the circuits/lights.
