the design for my ship is the starship enterprise, made out of a plastic cup, a tennis ball, paper plates, pencils, paper clips, and toilet paper tubes. my original reason for picking this design was to motivate me to emulate reality. i am a firm believer that in order to abstract, it's important to first learn realism, to know what you're abstracting from. besides, i figure it would be much more valuable to learn how to purposefully replicate reality, since i'd be shooting for something very specific.
i wasn't thinking about it at the time, but this design reiterates my theme of appropriation. it just goes to show how much it's a part of my creative fiber!
