Reframing Moments

The most reframing moment happened when blue wouldn’t work. Searching online for answers only came out on that you could buy certain pigments, which is pretty expensive. There was a thought about buying the pigments until a conversation with Laura occurred. She thought it didn’t fit the scope of the project because until then every color was made with products, that you could find close by and were relatively cheap. Buying pigments would not fit that scope. She asked if accessibility was more important or the color blue and if there wasn’t another easier way to get the color blue. And so, the recipe was changed. Now all the rainbow spectrum colors are made without having bought expensive pigments.

Another moment worth mentioning is building the website and the open source behind it. Talking about it with others really gave great ideas on improving it. Like adding a list with products, where there was no time for during the project, but other people maybe want to try. Elisa, Laura and Bea also gave tips at the very end of the project on what maybe could be done differently and all of that is documented on the website so other people can learn from it.
