TDR Part1+2 Pointless Task

Firstly we where briefed on what we had to do for the day. 

We had to think of a pointless task, do this task for an hour and then make a presentation on how pointless the task was. 

I wrote a list of pointless tasks that I could think of, 

I chose to pin pins into something, after seeing the pot of pins on the table and not wanting to waste time. 

Firstly to complete my pointless task I had to collect enough pins, I went around the studio and collected as many as possible and then I had to go and buy some more. I had a pot of pins that I could start with and instead of wasting more time I just began.

Originally I was going to pin the pins into the wall, however I tested this and I could barely get the pin into the wall and so I felt doing this repeatedly for an hour would be impossible. And so I saw the cushion chair, again I tested it to see if there would be any marks left as I didn't want to damage the chair, however there where no marks left and so I decided that this would be good to us for pining.

Start: 13:10

13:37 

I found that once I had stated it was really easy to pin quite quickly, I managed to use all the pins in the pot , it took me about 27 minutes to pin all of the pins into the cushion 

I liked the effect of all the mismatched pins and colours.

And so I had to take all the pins out and start again, which made the task even more pointless as I was having to now take them out and re-pin them.

I pinned in lines, building up the amount of pins.

Next set completed.

14:35

Next set completed.

14:40 End

I had then managed to pin 36pins from the last point, 

in total the pot contained 515

which means I had used all the pins three times, and then 36 on the last one

in total I pinned 1,581 pins in an hour

with an average of 26.6 minutes to use all of the pins in the pot.
