Yu’s journey

Inspirations:

I am trying to explore more fun and different interactive experience when people use the toilet-roll.

Because I noticed that people sometimes have no patience and feel boring when they are doing the simple and repeated action, like pulling the paper.

How about there is one music comes out when you are pulling the toilet-roll, and the sound disappears once you stop pulling the toilet-roll. I know some guy designed a automatic pulling toilet-roll machine. That’s awesome. But I don’t think this simple and natural pulling action should be replaced by the machine. J

Materials:

New reel, old music box, toilet-roll

Design —Phase One:

I am moving my eyes as a product designer to something new, trying to have fun  and exploring the layers and texture on a simple and organic product.:)

Onions are available in fresh, frozen, canned, pickled, and dehydrated forms. Onions can be used, usually chopped or sliced, in almost every type of food, including cooked foods and fresh salads, and as a spicy garnish; they are rarely eaten on their own but usually act as accompaniment to the main course. Depending on the variety, an onion can be sharp and pungent or mild and sweet.

The onion is easily propagated, transported and stored.

In ancient Greece, athletes ate large quantities of onion because it was believed that it would lighten the balance of blood.

Evidence suggests that onions may be effective against the common cold, heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, and other diseases.

As onions are sliced, cells are broken, allowing enzymes called alliinases to break down sulfides and generate sulfenic acids (amino acid sulfoxides). Sulphenic acids are unstable and decompose into a volatile gas called syn-propanethial-S-oxide. The gas diffuses through the air and eventually reaches the eye, where it reacts with the water to form a diluted solution of sulfuric acid. This acid irritates the nerve endings in the eye, making them sting. Tear glands produce tears to dilute and flush out the irritant.
