What were my actions?
so what?
What new questions do I have?
what's happened to me?
What was the result of my actions?
This time, I am applying one round of glue onto the tea bags first, before creating a little ratchet with it and filling it with soft pastel dust. Then, I attempt to diffuse the colour like I did the first time.
Perhaps rather than for transfer you can act as a simple carrier as well? To hold the soft pastel dust within you and keep it safe.
It could've been the glue, it could've been the soft pastel dust forming clumps and blocking the pores on its own. This presents an interesting dilemma, the main way I've been experimenting on you also inhibits the very property that deemed you useful in your original context. I wonder how I can use this? I don't think this is necessarily a dead end.
what else do you need from me?
What does this mean for next steps?
Seems like my hypothesis is partially true! It was significantly harder to get any colour onto the paper, I had to apply quite a bit of pressure.
what do you want?
What did I aim to do?
I'm recreating the first experiment with a twist. Inspired by an experiment that I ended up not doing, I originally wanted to use the paper maché method to create "stamps" by molding it into a shape before using it to transfer dust, but then I got curious on whether or not the glue would even allow the soft pastel dust to pass through, or if it would block its pores.
who told you that?
What sources do I use to inform?
N.A.
