Containment of Contamination

This images is of milk being dropped into water. It is a very simple idea but very effective. We wanted to show the process of some of our experimentation and so we put the into a sequence. Documenting the change of shape and form of the heavier liquid over time enabled us to see the step by step transition of the experiment.

Petri Dish Contamination

It was decided that  trying to grow fungus and bacteria within a Petri dish would be too difficult, so we went for the DIY approach. As a group today we sat in the studio using a range of materials such as oil, water, water colours and acrylics and started to paint and create shapes and forms within the dish. The most successful images we took were ones that were almost accidental and messy. Projecting the dishes onto the wall was interesting , the light box created a range of colour we hadn't  discovered within the Petri dishes. The projection highlighted various shapes and forms within the dishes.

Experiments.

After our tutorial today, we were feeling extremely lost about where our project and trend book was going. We were concentrating heavily on the literal aspect of 'multiple division ' rather than thinking BIG.  So instead of researching the multiple side of the trend we started looking into division, looking at virus, then vaccines, chemical reactions and so looking at science. There was a lot of beautiful imagery when researching science. Alex and Laura told us to try and create our own imagery, so as a group we decided to experiment. We worked with ice creating sharp and intricate structures adding  and dropping colours in as the ice melted. I particularly like the gold and deep fuchsia against the ice white. We also created a 3D form which we made by putting a bar of soap in the microwave.
