Assessment 2 - Task 2 Draft
Systems that Facilitate Relaxation
Bluetooth speakers are very convenient to use as they are wireless. Music therapy is used worldwide to help combat and aid many illnesses, it has been proven to enhance relaxation and reduce stress as well as help distract one from physical pain (Krout, 2007). Personally music helps me unwind and just put my mind to ease and let myself loose, to get rid of the stress.
Painting is a system that I believe is an amazing way to relax, by allowing yourself to just let your thoughts or random things out onto a canvas and create something that only you can understand. Although my painting aren't always the best looking I still end up content and at ease when I finish, it allows for me to gain a sense of accomplishment even if its a terrible painting.
Technology is a system that often isn't very much linked to relaxation but depending on what it's being used for it can be quite relaxing. I like to use my iPad to search different characters or people that I can be inspired by to paint or draw. This way I am not spending useless time scrolling through social media apps but instead I am looking for things that allow me to be more productive.
Design Concept
My design concept includes a bluetooth speaker on the right to allow for music to play in any occasion, I also have a small tablet screen that I can use as my reference when painting. In my design the middle consists of a conveyor belt full of a range of paint that can be selected and automatically dispersed onto the paint tray at the bottom with a shelf on the left for paint brushes. This design would be perfect for me, when I paint the whole becomes a mess and I get paint everywhere, this way it would be so much more easier to use paint without the worry of getting painting on my iPad or making a mess and losing my paint and paint brushes.
