Description

Inspired by the term “casual creator”, an alternate design space for tools which support creativity as a pleasurable activity rather than to accomplish tasks, I wanted to reimagine how to make drawing fun. Doodling is a past-time that has no specific outcome, so I channeled that into these pens. These pens were designed for users to feel wonder and curiosity about how they work, while also having fun exploring an online canvas. The blending pen is an exploration of shapes, textures and colors. The DNA pen is designed to be a fun introduction into science, with the idea of using DNA as a means of storing and transferring information.
