Design Process

For Leanne, I wrote:

It was meant to look like:

→ link to my example

I based it off Eggykun, a character my friend and I developed:

For me, Leanne wrote:

The wording was a bit vague at times so I had to use my own interpretation of what I thought was being asked. I also added a drink in the fox's hand.

In class, we started off with a Human Fax Machine exercise, drawing a pattern and describing it to your partner for them to interpret and reproduce. I used blue paper, Leanne had black.

Reflection

It was very interesting to see how my pseudocode was interpreted, as I thought I had made my instructions pretty clear yet the returned image was different than my original. In interpreting Leanne's pseudocode, I had to really think about the meaning of each word she wrote on a much deeper level in order to try and figure out her vision of the drawing.
