while carrying my weekend homework over into my free monday mornings, i realized that i not only need a job but should probably start brainstorming these things sooner. after reading the blackboard task of re thinking handtools, i slowly but surely started producing more and more possibilities (which is no aid to my indecisiveness). i tried thinking of not only the physical tools themselves, but also all the meaning that is linked to them along with what is aesthetically pleasing. looking to my list, not many of the objects are necessarily tools that one would generally think of (construction type tools, hammer, screwdriver, etc.) but more so things that one would use regularly that they wouldn't generally categorzie as a tool (i'm pretty sure this works for the assignment). here is my cumulative list thus far....
toothbrush
magnifine glass
car key
hairbrush
lighter or box of matches
salt and pepper shakers
sink dish scrubber brush thing
wisk
computer mouse
water bottle
hand watch
i'm going to try to stop my list there although throughout the day i'm sure more will come to mind. the ones i have highlighted in pink are my preferences at the moment, mainly due to the meaning/ themes behind them, and i think they would be interesting to draw.
