Inflatable Model

By reshaping the plastic garbage through cutting and taping other attach-ments, I am able to create some kind of volume once I turn on the hair dryer. After capturing air inside the garbage which can hold a maximum amount before bursting, I am able to seal the hole with my hand, leaving me with an inflated object.

Digital Model - attempt

Here is my attempt at trying to model my floaty on Rhino 5.0

Vylon or Bubble wrap materialActs as a type of bubble

Unable to hurt people

Perfect for crowded trains

Doesn’t make you look threatening, even though you are giving yourself personal space

Fluorescent bubbles make you look attracting, yet you are still in comfort

Each bubble chamber can change in size for op-timum comfort or space

Turtle shell bubble on the back provides the user with enough individual space and security from rear pedestrians

Skin Suit #1

Getting air into the garbage bag

Final product of garbage model. Some say it reminds them of Shrek.

Skin Suit #3

Fat man suit

Can be inflated to a size of your choice for different comfort zonesSimilar sealing system to floaty arm band. Different air chambers as well

How can this draw an emotional ef-fect?
