About me
My name is Sophie Feng. I am 14 and I am an incoming sophomore from Oregon. My favorite subjects are art and science. In my free time, I enjoy swimming.
I also love art, specifically painting and digital art. Through this project I hope to learn about a different form of creating through morphing matter!

Day 3: My Final Project
Project Concept Description
My project is designed to look like a jellyfish because I think the transformation would be interesting to watch.

Overall Reflection
Looking back: What did you make?
I made a circle with branches from it that kind of looks like what I envisioned to be a jellyfish.
Who is your target audience? (Primary Intended users)
I just made it for fun and to test out the beads.
Where do you see your project would be helpful? Who will benefit from this project?
I do not see my project as having any practical value but it can be a fun art or science project that can be taught in school. It is very interesting to watch the beads transform and I would like to learn how that happens.
What would be the potential impact of your design?
Same as above
What materials did you use? How easy/difficult was it to procure the material? Have you had any challenging moments
I used the materials provided in the materials box (paper and different colored beads). It was difficult to use them at first, especially the superglue since it got all over my hands, but it got easier later on. I had trouble with the tweezers sticking to the glue and I had to peel off the glue with my hands which was very inconvenient.
