Conceptual statement

Reflecting on the ideas and issues raised by this project.

I came up with the idea of using a wrist band that will connect wires strings to the fingers to trigger the programme to then process through from my wrist band design. With all the different concepts that I was contemplating on having different designs added to the wrist band. I viewed the instructables website to give me a brief idea of what to actually do. I found it difficult to come up with an easy design to use.  I found this assessment to be rather interesting. Reflecting over all the aspects and progression in being committed to designing and structuring my T – shirt design. This assignment was very interesting. I found it in the start to be very hard and difficult to overcome my final idea and mostly what to actually do. In developing the t-short, I found it rather manage with connecting and soldering all the wires together. This assignment gave me so many issues especially with being able to programme Max to function my idea. The main idea for my design was to have buttons connected to each side of the dress shirt one connected to the positive and the other to the negative to then process the machine to function. Each time the shirts buttons are connected, this will trigger the Button to then function the Max programme to make movement to video’s that im using. 

This image explains the whole affect of the entire shirt that has been designed to have several buttons that will the trigger the videos that i have programmed the button detected. I have used a wireless key board to make life a bit more easier rather than have a key board connected into the computer with a wire hanging out. I Had an issue with the design because my USB stick that operates my keyboard had failed. I tried to fix the issue by coming up with the idea of soldering a cord to the key board, The situation from this was that the key board had only two connections for the battery pack so i had no way to connect the cord to the key board.  

 This image illustrates the idea of how the button is presented and the materials I used to construct this idea Between each button, I used a hot glue gun to stick the tin foil to the t-shirt. The design was to have two buttons connected to each individual side of the t-shirt to conduct and trigger the key on the Max program. Every time i touch the the buttons together. The button will then set the program to trigger the videos. I have crated the videos to overlap each other to explain the main idea of innocence and flash backs. I used three different videos of gangster people that reflects the idea of them having no part in society which this is the reason why i used them. This acts as a representation of Heist.
