• Attendance list
• We talk through one/two example GanttCharts from students. (10 min)

• Ken Adams
• Find the horizon…
• Gesture Drawings
• Light and shadows
• Hatching
• One, two, three point perspective (helpful link)
• Technical drawings:

1. Isometric drawing: Note the 120° angles separating the x, y and z axes.
2. Axonometries with two same angles are called diametric
3. Axonometries with three different angles are called trimetric

1. Find and read articles featuring novel technology
2. Think about three topics you are interested in. For each topic think about a machine that is related to it. A few examples:
   • I am interested in photography –> I would like to build a machine that applauds every time I take a picture.
   • I work for an environmental NGO –> I would like to develop a machine that visualises how the impoverished fields in the mountains of my home country can be fertilised in a better way.
   • I love art and I am fascinated by robots –> I would like to build a machine that paints pictures for me.
3. Create a poster that visualises those three ideas
4. You will give a 5 minutes short overview about your ideas in class to receive everybodys feedback. One of those ideas will be realised in one or the other form by you over the coming semester.
