Tourist souvenir Remix

Who says tourist says gift to take back home with you! which is what we have been doing for this session...looking at tourist gift. most of them were quite funny but pointless to have has a practical object to use on the daily basis.
We had to be in groups to do the next step which was to write as many question as possible about the objects (gifts) that we had in front of us and to help us do so there was the legendary questions starters which were WHO,WHAT,WHEN,WHY,HOW and WHERE.
we then came up with the questions we had to pick three question which we though would be important to think of for each gifts.
After we chose one gift to work on to move on quickly and that was the pen which had some images of famous parts of london joined together and a moving bus (which could only moved because of the water that was inside). So what we had to do after that was to use the REVERSE,DISTORT,EXAGGERATE and WISHFUL THINKING for the pen the images below shows the steps we did.We designed an outcome for a new pen(gadget) that would be appropriate as a gift and that is how we came up with this design. we didn't want to make it to complicated or divert from the original design so we just added a part for the speakers which is on the below part of the pen and on the upward part of the pen we added a buzzer for the sound and also divided the images of which were in the pen we sill left the part of london that every tourist know but also squeezed in the bad areas of london; instead of the bus we used a little person so that wen the buzzer is pressed the little person would move to the bad side which would cause the police siren coming out from the pen.
When designing this pen we though that not only it should be practical by writing but also when your in trouble because london is not as sweet as everyone thinks.
