Space flights are merely an escape, a fleeing away from oneself, because it is easier to go to Mars or to the moon than it is to penetrate one's own being”       Carl Gustav Jung



Astronomy compels the soul to look upward, and leads us from this world to another.

we wear suncream to protect our skin on earth, if we were to live in mars or jupiter would we need different protection from the rest of the planets there?
- we wouldn't necessarily know untill months/years of living there.
- the people that do move there will be the ones to find out...
- what kind of clothing protection might be fashionable in 2016 whilst in mars?

spray on clothing

Spray on clothing may turn from a crazy idea into reality

Same idea as airbrushing, but is a thicker substance and covers the whole body

Spray-on clothing becomes a reality

Spray-on technology demonstrated in London today creates a seamless fabric on contact with the body and may have applications in medicine as well as fashion
A Spanish fashion designer has developed the world's first spray-on clothing that can be worn, washed and worn again.
Manel Torres joined forces with scientists at Imperial College London to invent the spray, which forms a seamless fabric on contact with the body.
Torres took 15 minutes to spray a T-shirt onto a male model in a demonstration today, ahead of his spring/summer collection at the Science in Style fashion show in London next week.
The spray consists of short fibres that are mixed into a solvent, allowing it to be sprayed from a can or high-pressure spray gun. The fibres are mixed with polymers that bind them together to form a fabric. The texture of the fabric can be varied by using wool, linen or acrylic fibres.
The fabric, which dries when it meets the skin, is very cold when it is sprayed on, a limitation that may frustrate hopes for spray-on trousers and other garments.
"I really wanted to make a futuristic, seamless, quick and comfortable material," said Torres. "In my quest to produce this kind of fabric, I ended up returning to the principles of the earliest textiles such as felt, which were also produced by taking fibres and finding a way of binding them together without having to weave or stitch them."
Torres teamed up with chemical engineer Paul Luckham to set up a spin-out company called Fabrican Ltd, which will explore other applications ranging from spray-on bandages, hygiene wipes and upholstery for cars and furniture.
"The fashion application of spray-on fabric is a great way of advertising the concept, but we are also keen to work on new applications for the medical, transport and chemical industries," said Luckham. "For example, the spray-on fabric may be produced and kept in a sterilised can, which could be perfect for providing spray-on bandages without applying any pressure for soothing burnt skin, or delivering medicines directly to a wound."

look at mixing colours together

- experimental research, water and ink in a tray, put paper over and lift. will create a galaxy like background to then scan in and photoshop with an image for mood boards.

-use a straw to spray ink/paint onto paper to create  star like effect.

-scan all experimental work in to apply onto photoshop.

- use black paper and spray bleach onto it. Add glitter?
