Concept
- Main concept : Make easier to find materials for realizing any kind of artistic project
The project is web-based. It will be a main website and plugins for different social networks, starting with facebook.
- 2 different unified approaches, 2 clear and different sections of the website:
First:
People upload photos of unused objects. Photo, name, optional short description, location ( city ) and an expire date ( optional).
On the website of the project you can navigate through these photos of objects. Through this navigation you could find an object that you need for creating something or the navigation itself could be used as a font of inspiration for creating something.
Once you have found things that you would need, clicking on them you could write a short description and draw or upload an sketch explaining what you want to do with it.
The people that have upload this unused object they with receive a notification (email) and they can decide if they want to give it to you or not.
People that get material should show the final result of what they have done with it. So on the website would be a gallery of things created ( totally or partially ) with unused things. These things could be rate by people.
Second:
On these section of the website people is able to create an explanation of an artistic project that they want to do or something that they want to create and a list of material, things that they need to create it.
Everybody can check that list and contact them if they want to offer an item of the wishlist.
