Patrick Donbeck
Play Gifts & Manipulatives
Fabricating and crafting a series of open-ended toys that engage physical,
visual and experiential laws, systems and relationships defined in Phase 1.
The concept of toy that let player experiment forms and structure was taken from Black mountain college, an experimental college that forced student learn from their experiences , and moreover a sense of node that represented by the plan of the college where having a central hall in the middle and connected with another building. The supporting of Ruth Asawa works who had been a student at Blackmoutain college and moreover the Geodestic Dome of Buckminster Fuller.
An interactive toy made of 3 main connectors and pipe which easy enough for children and complex enough for adult.
Easy to assembly by push together and pull apart.
toy include 8 different connectors and 2 different pipe length in order to create an endless possibilities.
The toy can be used to study geometric structure and moreover understand how system work
and investigate what can do and what can't do
Building forms, Patterns up to imagination.
Start the experimentation from connecting the same connecting together then follow by connect different types of connectors.
By rotating pipe creates more possibilities of forms .
