Applied Inventiontronics, Perid 4 - Week 6

[a-no-brainer.livejournal.com]

Glitch was at the front of the class again today, and on each desk were a few sheets of clean, un-lined paper and two pencils.

"Today, you're going to be working on the look of your inventions. For the first half of the class, I want you to sketch out a design. It doesn't have to be too detailed, but, the idea is that you'll get a feel for how it will all come together and look when it's done. Remember things like functionality and overall aesthetic appeal."

He smiled reassuringly at them, because this next part he was afraid they wouldn't really like.

"The second half of class, you'll be showing your sketches to your classmates and critiquing each other." There was a stern look before he continued with, "Nicely, please."

A moment, then, as he looked at them a bit expectantly before he realized he hadn't told them yet to begin.

"Oh, uhm, right. Go ahead. Begin!"

"There's a method?"

Oh boy.

"Oh yes," Willow said. "You start out with an idea - like 'this invention should work'. Then you test it. Then if it works, woohoo! If not, tweak and test again."

"That's just common sense," he said with a skeptical look.

"Though now that you mention it, I can't think of anyone I'd want to ask to test it. After all, it might be unpleasant if it doesn't work correctly."

Willow nodded. "This is true. Though you never know around here. Maybe somebody has special memory powers. Not that I'm aware of anyone who does, but on the other hand neither have I asked."

Liir was very much not looking at Willow.

"No one I've spoken to either," he said. "And Professor Ambrose doesn't seem to think it would be very common."

It's the truth, even if he's very very good at carving the truth.
