After I spoke to a couple of classmate's about what is required for
Tuesday's class I got some mixed information regarding the dimensions. One was able to send me a picture of a Google Sketchup preliminary drawing of what her "merge" would be. I was a little confused - by this time it was too late to email the Professor, inquire about the project and get a timely response. The general consensus was that I had to marry/merge the chipboard models Kafka and Glass. I was not completely happy with my last attempt at translating Franz Kafka's "Common Confusion" into a spacial moment, so this was a perfect opportunity to redo it. I was pretty happy with the way the Glass model turned out; and, because of its multiple pieces and time constraints I could not properly merge them without compromising craft. Instead I chose to redo the Kafka piece in such a way that I could just "slide" it into Glass. And, it worked!
I kept it pretty stereotomic and simplistic with only one notation throughout the model (time is always against me). I could not show up to class with nothing or with a piece of shit model that looked like I assembled it an hour before class. I at least had to take a leap to kill two assignments with one well measured model.
***These pictures were taken in the design studio after I spoke with my Professor and he suggested I cut some pieces out of the model to show the spacial joint. That is why there are some cut out pieces/pencil and marker on it***

This was the original Kafka & Glass:
