Kat King -Industrial Design

Fourth year Industrial design student, Kat King came and spoke to fellow undergrad students about her major. She answered many questions about what the classes are like, different electives she has taken, and some of the projects she has worked on. Kat brought in a book that contained her portfolio, a combination of industrially design objects and photography. Among her work was an object that was specifically intended to trap memories without the use of photographs. The idea is to capture a the sound of a moment in a rock-like object; only when the object is brought back to the place where the memory took place can the memories be accessed. These objects can be gifted as presents for other people or just kept for a personal trip down memory lane. In all, Kat seemed very excited and informative about what it is like to be an industrial design major.

  1. Does Ruffus qualify? That would be a memory for us all, but it would have to be lost in the grass at midnight. Shall we do that annually?
