I'm in the BAIA program at UNM with a focus in animation. My favorite series is Pokemon though I also like many other series such as Trollhunters, Digimon, and many nintendo games. I make Plush aliens from original designs and am hoping to learn more about 3d printing and make some electronic plush.

What inspired you to make this project?
As the course professor, I have been researching ways to help people be more creative and get unstuck in the design process. Research shows that most ideation techniques are not very effective. In pilot testing this protocol in my courses, I have been amazed by the results. Students love to do it, but I have never seen such creative ideas from any other technique!
