My Idea is to make a statue of Percy Jackson, the main character in my book. I originally thought to do Atlas, but in my book, Percy takes the burden of holding up the world, to let Artemis fight Atlas. In my project people will interact with it by dragging the little globe I have designed that is attached to a string. They will drag the globe through the maze to put on Percy's arms.

1st Iteration

No more iterations

My book is The Serpent's Shadow

I think that one of the most important moments of the book was when the main character was appointed as the first king in three thousand years.

I decided to recreate the moment when he took the throne.

KING BOB!!!

This is supposed to be the moment when he sits down on the throne and becomes king.

3-D Design so far

I decided to do a 3-D printed throne, and then find a way to make a human.

TinkerCad

The Transit Communicator

I will create the Transit Communicator from the Testing, a device that acts as a map and allows you to see where you are in the world. Cia (The main character) uses this during the 4th test of the Testing when she must find her way back to Testing Headquarters. This project is interactive as you can move around the map in the communicator as Cia does in the novel.

Iterations: Chat GPT Help

I received lots of code to help make my tilemap from Chat GPT that I would normally add but is very long, complicated, and wouldn't fit on the page.

It has taken a lot of time and ChatGPT has helped me with many iterations, none of which are what I want. I am still working on having it help me with making a map and not just a bunch of symbols.

This is as far as I have gotten. However, ChatGPT has been starting to understand that I want a map and while this doesn't have any physical features, it is close to physically working as expected.

The Makey-Makey I will be using.

The Lazer Cut I will use to disguise the Makey-Makey as the Transit Communicator.

I worked on building my phone that you can pick up.

Thesis

I wanted to build a real life piece of clothing instead of a inanimate object because I wanted to try something new. This will relate to the Hunger Games because Snow wears this all the time but, I changed the blazer a little bit.
