Reflective bubble texture
For a schoolproject I came up with creating this texture in a reflective fabric. I think it looks super interesting, especially with the reflective material. I Also found out that you can make different shades of reflection by engraving it with a lasercutter on the right settings. But that unfortunately that didn’t really work out on the fabric I ordered to make the bag. I made a bag with the material for a schoolproject but I feel like I could bring it further, but I still want to show it. Concept: I AM NOT A MACHINE REFLECTIVE BAG As a cyclist or pedestrian you act like a machine in traffic by following the paths and rules of traffic like a programmed machine. But in fact you are the only venerable creature in a world of machines. When you got hit by a car, you cannot be repaired and immediately go on with your life as before. Like a machine can do. That’s why it’s extra important to be safe in traffic. A lot of young people aren’t safe enough in traffic. Bicycle lights are most of the time broken, stolen or empty batteries and wearing a safety jacket is not cool. But by wearing a reflective bag that you can always wear visible, you can be safe in traffic and feel stylish at the same time. On the bag you see a human machine or in other words a robot at first. Because we act like machines but we aren’t. You also see the text ‘’I CAN FEEL’’ because we are venerable and cannot be repaired like a car. If you put light on the bag you will see the 2nd layer of the graphic appear and you will see that there is a human inside with the text ‘’I’m not a machine’’.
