Physical Exploration _ Plastic

Taking precedence from the melted foam,  the straight perforated plastic sheeting was also heated and manipulated to form something new.  The flexibility of the plastic when under unusual conditions lends itself to the defense mechanism idea associated with protecting the information services through the canopy.  Although this idea is not fully resolved, and far too complicated for the short time frame, the notion of exploration has to be identified in order to substantiate the importance of the information highway.  This physical exploration was not as successful in determining a design outcome or drive for the project, however clearly demonstrates the properties of materials and the adaptation in which they present when faced with change of conditions (such as heat).
