The second task was to design a wearable garment by digitalizing a pattern design to Rhinoceros, making the changes and laser cutting the whole piece.
The third part was to make a project using electronics. The project was to make a triangulated bag of felt, unrolling the surface and laser cutting in. We used magnets, battery 9V and leds to make a bag that when you open it, it lights up!
