## Brainstorming

### Modularity
- Pinterest Board *Modular* from János: https://pin.it/ipaGgOBUg
- **4p** (4 motors/cyclones in parallel) DIY dust extraction
    - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KWIB_UZQ9Y

### "Ribbed/Crocodile" Corpus
- Have a "sliced" corpus with segments
- Easy extensibility in one dimension
- Segments can be 3D printed.

*AI images, crocodile look rather unintentional*

### Stacked ribs/segments (cf. "drum" corpus)
- Think for example cascaded fan casings
    - Easily extensible in one dimension
    - Easy to a segment at one end or in the middle
    - Generic segment(s) and special-case variants
        - Generic middle segment
        - End-cap segment

### "Drum" Corpus

#### Inspiration: Zeppelin Silos (huge)
- https://www.zeppelin-systems.com/de/en/products/storage-and-delivery/silo-designs/
- flanges are bolted together
- good for shipping

### Scaffolding Corpus
- 2-1/2-D parts (lasercut) that stick together or click to obtain a 3D form
  - e.g. 3D-Puzzles (Rolife, Rokr) https://support.magicholz.de/hc/de/articles/27298660095377-Wer-ist-Robotime-Rokr-und-Rolife

*Rolife Toy Airship TG407*

### "Fractal" Corpus
- https://www.n55.dk/MANUALS/SPACEFRAME/spaceframe.html
  - "The equal-length struts are bent in 70° angles for tetrahedra and 110° angles for octahedra. [...] Two tetrahedra and one octahedron make the basic building "brick", with which one can build walls, foundation and roof."

*Spaceframe (based on only 2 kinds of profiles)*

### "Vacuum in a Box"
- Configurations
    1. Single strap, slung over shoulder
    2. Two straps, or put in a backpack
    3. Put on wheels
- Makes a nice slogan, but "X in a box" is commonly used in marketing.

## Design Theses

:::info
A thesis is a proposition that is maintained by argument.
:::

### Thesis 1: Define OSH-Look as cool, desirable, sexy, modern, etc.
- (Not exactly sure what OSH-Look is :smirk:.)

#### Example: FHB work clothing
- old image: working clothes for "sweaty men with belly and little self-esteem" (exaggerated statement)
- new image: sexy/hipster/pride-of-work(wo)manship
  - ![image](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/H1o24nNWWx.png =x250)
![image](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/S1M1B2N-Wx.png =x250)
![image](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/rk4urnEW-x.png =x250)

#### OSH Vacuum
- "My granny thinks OSH is cool"

![image](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/BJvxd2NZ-l.png =x250)


### Thesis 2: OSH-Design is a chance to stick out
- Contemporary designs are interchangeable. A OSH-Look can stick out and is more memorable, creating a kind of "brand look"
  - Cars look pretty much the same
![image](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/S114_eIW-e.png =x250)
https://windingroad.com/articles/features/why-do-all-new-cars-look-the-same/
  - All household irons look the same
    - Why do they all have a tip? Still needed?
