Throughout the course, I have been experimenting with rotational motion and wanted to continue with this trend by focusing on the drill\u2019s spinning properties. I knew from the beginning that I would have to find a new way to use the drill without taking apart one of my dad\u2019s expensive tools. Thus, I wanted to make something that could be simply attached to the drill bit to spin around. I was interested in how the speed of the rotation would affect the artwork being created. I had a few concepts for what to make but decided on trying to create spin art. Though I think of spin art as a fun activity from childhood, I wanted to see if I could be more specific and thoughtful in creating circular designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"1920\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1080 \/ 1920;\" width=\"1080\" controls src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine1.mov\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To make my spinning machine, I started by cutting out small, square pieces of paper that could be attached to the drill. I took a drillbit and attached it to one of the pieces of paper with a lot of tape to create a sturdy base. This made it easier to move from one design to the next without having to create a new \u201cmachine\u201d each time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I experimented with many different art supplies including: markers, pencils, acrylic paint, ect. I made a few using the paint, but found that it easily became very globby and, when I had the drill spinning at faster speeds, the paint would spin off of the paper and splash all over my room. Through trial and error, I found that ink worked the best to create thick and colorful lines. In addition, it was easier to control than the paint and could be added directly to the paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4292-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"14190\" class=\"wp-image-14190\" srcset=\"https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4292-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4292-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4292-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4292-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4292-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4291-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"14191\" data-link=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/?attachment_id=14191\" class=\"wp-image-14191\" srcset=\"https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4291-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4291-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4291-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4291-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4291-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/05f501ea-e6c8-41e7-9de0-9f5671533394\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine6-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"14193\" data-link=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/?attachment_id=14193\" class=\"wp-image-14193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine6-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine6-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine6-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine6-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine6-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4293-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"14194\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4293-scaled.jpeg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/?attachment_id=14194\" class=\"wp-image-14194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4293-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4293-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4293-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4293-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_4293-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I really enjoy the results of my first experiment and would say that it was my favorite of the two attempts at using the drill. I prefer the orderly look of the designs and the more control that I had in the process. My second experiment however, was all about the machine controlling the art. I decided to reverse the idea of my original machine and attach a paint brush directly onto the drill. I then put a bunch of paper in a bowl to decrease risk of splattering and tried to work in circular motions to make designs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"1920\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1080 \/ 1920;\" width=\"1080\" controls src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_5.mov\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While these were much more chaotic than the other experiment, they have a rougher feeling to them that I also find interesting. The colors mixed together seems to make a connection for all of the random lines. This experiment forced me to allow the machine to make a lot of the artistic decisions and I had to let go of that control over the pieces that I created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_2-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"14196\" data-link=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/?attachment_id=14196\" class=\"wp-image-14196\" srcset=\"https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_2-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_2-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_2-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_2-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_2-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_2-2048x2048.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_3-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"14197\" data-link=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/?attachment_id=14197\" class=\"wp-image-14197\" srcset=\"https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_3-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_3-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_3-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_3-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_3-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_1-1-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"14199\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_1-1-scaled.jpeg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/?attachment_id=14199\" class=\"wp-image-14199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_1-1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_1-1-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_1-1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_1-1-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/r6g.ad7.mwp.accessdomain.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/foundmachine_part_3_1-1-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For my found machine project, I chose to use a large drill that I found in my garage.
