# ^\_^ \\\The machine Paradox

The machine paradox was a course about the hacking and the reverse engeenirg. In this, two week, thanks to this design approach: we dissasembled different's elettronical device, take a several documentation about all the component, check wich component still works and after that we try to re-use this component for make an useless machine. 

Our useless machine, FOMOX\
Party in progress, not human allowed ....

## FORENSIC STUDIO (first week)

We choose the Form Labs 1 (3D print SLA)&#x20;

\
After that we have conducted a forensic studio, the same things used by detective during their esamination. We understand a lot of things about the Form Labs 1, thanks to ours step during  this curios week, wise we understand the programmed obsolescence's paradox.&#x20;

* **Examination\\\\** descriptive list of items submitted for examination, including serial number, brand and model

* **Forensic Question\\\\** understand how the machine works, how it is built and why it failed\
  &#x20;                                     What does it do ? \
  &#x20;                                     How does it works ? \
  &#x20;                                     How it's built ? \
  &#x20;                                     Why it failed, or it wasn't used anymore?
* **Step taken\\\\** Cleaned - Dissasembled - Try to start&#x20;

* **Testing & Experiment\\\\** We tested if the 3D print works by connecting the machine to a computer.                                        \
  &#x20;                                            After downloading the software - Pre form - we tried \
  &#x20;                                            to run a file (3D  model)

## FOMOX PROTOTYPE (second week)

The process of fomox prototype was dividied in two step: make the elettronics components works (software) and develop the machine's physical part (hardware)

### Software process

## ^\_^ REFLECTION ^\_^

It were two intense and super amazing weeks, it was my first time get in touch with this design thinking (reverso engeneering and hacking). I see in this methodologies a potential field for reaserch and designin, I hope to improve my skils in this field.  \
Working with Santi, Nico, Josep, Guigliem and Adhai was a real pleasure for: seriousness, calm, experience and, above all their, competence.  \
A special greeting to my group mates - Bel, Flavio, Ramon, Max - it was great and special working with you. HOLAAAA DORITOOOOO <3 <3 <3
