Papers & Motors

Melissa Palermo & Cristal Sung




We originally had come up with a different concept (there are sketches & prototypes for it, but not posted) that required different motors. We attempted to come up with a concept with what we had (two 12V DC motors and paper). We wanted to to play with the concept of mirrors and how when objects are spinning can become unidentifiable. The mirrors and paper are the same shape, however with the mirrors being static and the paper spinning the viewer cannot tell that they are the same. This is a representation of ourselves and how we don't always see ourselves the way that others see us. The motors worked sporadically, which gave it a nice effect. If we had a shield we would probably program it, so that it would seem random.
