Reaction:

When I first tried to conjure up a 'design machine' I was unsure of where to begin. I found that others' interpretations and designs really opened my eyes to the possibilities of the project. There were many interesting methods of making form that culminated into an intriguing piece of art. Looking at it now, if I could go back, I would have a better understanding and a few new ideas on what I could create. I think the project as a whole was very compelling as a unique perspective on how to design.
