About Music Pen Cap Kifuniko cha Kalamu

Kifuniko cha Kalamu cha Muziki ni seti ya vifuniko vya kalamu za rangi ya maji zinazotumiwa na watoto wenye umri wa miaka saba hadi kumi na miwili. Kila kifuniko hutoa toni tofauti, hivyo vifuniko kumi na viwili kwa pamoja huunda mizani rahisi ya muziki. Sehemu zinazotoa sauti hutofautiana kwa unene, na uso wake umepakwa rangi na kumaliziwa kwa mpako wa varnishi. Ncha iliyoinuliwa huruhusu kifuniko kubandikwa au kutolewa kwa kidole gumba. Muundo huu unalenga kupunguza upotevu wa vifuniko vya kalamu na kudumisha shauku ya kupaka rangi. Idadi ndogo zinaweza kuchapishwa kwa kutumia resini inayoathiriwa na mwanga, huku uzalishaji mkubwa zaidi ukiweza kufinyangwa kwa polipropelini au plastiki ya ABS.

Production Technology
In the design of the pen cap, we use a special color material with different thickness.Colour the surface of the Pen Cap and add a coat of varnish.Small quantities can be processed using 3D printing techniques using photosensitive resin materials. When mass production is determined, PP or ABS plastic materials can be used for batch production using molds.
Design Challenge
The process of turning thinking into design.
Research
I observe and think about the way people use products in their life, and try to find the behavior or emotional transition between people subconsciously. Then, I will have subliminal emotional reinforcement conducive to product experience, and bring people suitable and novel products.I believe that products designed in accordance with people's subconscious can not only meet people's use habits, but also make people feel that such novel experience can resonate.
Inspiration
Pen and the pen cap are always used together, "Tumbler" pen cap combines the design of scale through visual sense, tactile sensation and auditory sense to redefine a new way of communication, to let people rethink the meaning of "paint". The tip of the cap will jut out, so you can use your thumb to push it with less energy and you can also easily unload or put on it. In the design of the pen cap, we use a special color material with different thickness.
Project Duration
The project began in Macau in January 2019 and was completed in Macau in April 2019.
Operation Flow
The Music Pen Cap is arranged according to the different collocation of colors. When the pencil lightly crosses,some different tones of crisp sweet music will come out. According to the different thickness of the pronunciation point, 12 pens will have 12 different caps with different colors. The "music" pen cap can not only exercise the player's patience,stimulating their auditory development, developing their perception of music, and maintaining their interest in painting.
