3D: 2 - Virtual Typewriter (Art 343/381: Critical Play)

Artist's Statement: I thought it would be interesting to create a virtual sculpture of a typewriter. I think the juxtaposition of using new 3d technology on a computer to create such an old device — the old computer — provides an extra layer to this piece. I chose to think big, making the typewriter much larger than it would be in reality. I thought this might tie into the idea of how big technology is in society, but the devices are getting smaller. Making the virtual sculpture pokes fun at the idea of an old-fashioned, big clunky device that is the typewriter.
