Post 8 >> A Subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

In this semester I have a subject called "Procesos y Prototipos".  In every class we work in diferents processes that any industrial designer need to know, we started with representation, for example disguise a material to other material. We build a cube with wood, but we used painting to transform it visually in "stone". Then we build replicas in a scale, when the teacher asses replicas was so strict and all my classmates had a "red mark", I was the best mark with a 4,5, working in this was so hard because you needed to take care of all, the replica needed to be the same color and measurements. 
Then I remember we worked in acrylic, I spent 24 hours non-stop working in a pyramid of acrylic and I suffered a lot, but it was worth it because my mark was  a 7.0
We learned how to build a book, I think that was so cool because now I can make books and build books to gift.
Now we was working in molds of gesso, that is a common process to reproduce en masse a product. But me and my classmates was having problems because the days was so humid and that difficult to work in the gesso. 
Today we started drawing planes of objects and then we going to build the objets in different materials.

The main contents in "Procesos y Prototipos" I have seen are:
Material Expression
Mechanics of Materials
Transformation Codes
Formal Capabilities of materials

I like the subject because I am learning a lot of materials and a lot of  useful processes and techniques to build objects.
