Step 1:
- List out five dangers you’d like to protect yourself from.
- Needles
- Jellyfish
- Cancer
- Global warming
- Extreme weather
- List out five ways you’d like to extend the capabilities of your body
- Be faster
- Breath underwater
- Enhanced hearing
- Photographic memory
- Ability to draw energy from sun, plants, etc
- Choose one of the ten items you listed above
I chose to focus on the ability to draw energy from the sun, plants, and other natural resources because of its potential to address key environmental and health challenges. By utilizing these resources, we can reduce the environmental impact of food production, including greenhouse gas emissions and habitat destruction. This approach helps with sustainability and protects ecosystems while also providing a healthier alternative to traditional energy sources, which often rely on processed or artificial methods. The goal of this project is to find an innovative way to reduce dependency on large-scale food production while offering a sustainable and healthier energy option. With this solution, we can help combat issues like overfarming, deforestation, and the depletion of natural resources, paving the way for a more sustainable future. This project also considers the needs of individuals with dietary restrictions, disabilities, or health conditions that limit their access to certain foods or nutrients. For these individuals, traditional diets will not always give them the energy they need. By developing a method to draw energy directly from natural resources, we can create a consistent and inclusive solution to meet diverse nutritional and energy needs, supporting both human health and environmental conservation.
- List out 10 tangible people/places/things that are associated with the purpose of your project.
- Sun

Step 2:
- Find an image of a particular work of art that you find compelling.
- Artist: Saar Snoek
- Title: Werewere Kokako AotearoBra
- Write just one sentence that specifies the attribute or strategy that you intend to borrow from the piece.
- I intend to borrow the use of nature and natural elements in the wearable art and similar to here was going to incorporate it as a vest or top for a person to wear.
Step 3:
- Five sketches with 5 different ideas
