Critique

Professor Fox liked our prototype, and enjoyed playing with the leftover bits as we demonstrated how the two systems could integrate, the strengths and weaknesses of them both. He suggested changing the module to a layered unit, with the clear tubes inside of the larger ones, and the larger ones made of soft material, like silicates. This solution would provide both the branching flexibility of the smaller units with the surfacing capabilities of the larger units. He also recommended we think about how people will react to a nubby surface as a floor or countertop.

We're going to work out a palatte of parts, then, and attempt to solve some of the trouble spots.
