Going into the Cooper Hewitt Museum I know I wanted to make some sort of weapon for my tool. I did not want my weapon to be functional, but rather metaphorical. I wanted it to express how I felt about weapons rather than function as a weapon. I want to make an Anti-weapon weapon.

    When I was finally able to stop playing with the machines they had there, I was able to view the weapons on display. The throwing knives caught my eye. What I found most interesting about them was their shapes. Now these were beautifully unsymmetrical and organic shapes. Couldn’t a weapon just be an I’m sure this weapon surveyed it’s people more purpose than just being an object on display, but that’s the only person I’m intrigued by.

    One weapon, I did not see at the Museum was a gun, which I found very strange, as this one tool did in fact change the course of history so many times. Guns frighten people; guns frighten me. They hold too much power. I want to make a gun, a gun that only serves one purpose; to remind people that they are killing part of themselves when they trigger the gun. I’m making a two faced gun!
