I had no good design ideas, so I over-designed a whole method for discarding ideas instead.

Made perfectly for yellow post notes.

I realized that my life is full of radical changes, that are often presive as negative, but for me they are full with emotions, colors, and shapes.

There is a pattern, as crazy as it is, that connects our life's big changes into one continuous development.

I wanted to express it in a vibrant energetic way.

And that's how RADIC came to life representing that radical life changes are vibrant with emotions, has sharp edges and circular waves writing our stories with colors, ups and downs.

Living in a RADIC way, moving around, being open and true.

Made as assignment at

Do you feel the font is representing your life changes?

Results Experiments 5–8
The last four tests in this series are all small tweaks of the Experiment 3 recipe, just to see how tiny changes shift the final material.

Here’s what changed:

Experiment 5:
Same recipe as Experiment 3, but double the wool.

Experiment 6:
Again the same recipe, but with four times the wool.

Experiment 7:
Same quantities as Experiment 3, but the wool fibers are cut in half instead of fully shredded.
A kind of “in-between” version of Experiment 3 and 4.

Experiment 8:
Exactly the same recipe as Experiment 3, but dried for less time in the dehydrator.
So this one is all about timing, not ingredients.

It’s fascinating how small shifts in fiber length, fiber density, or dehydration time can create completely different behaviors in the material.
Some became more rigid, some more textured, some more flexible, some more unpredictable.

Curious which one surprised you the most — and what kind of properties you’d want to see explored next.

My gear situation ATM is as good as this:

Experiment 3/8 — Agar, Shredded Wool, Water, Glycerol.
Day three of the bioplastic series. This time I’m keeping the wool shredded again, but I’m adding glycerol to see how it changes flexibility and texture.

Ratio:
• 5 g agar
• 1 g shredded wool
• 100 g water
• 2 mg glycerol

The process stays consistent with the previous tests:
• Weigh everything precisely
• Add the water slowly over the agar so it hydrates without clumping
• Add the glycerol
• Heat gently until it forms a soft gel
• Add the shredded wool while the mixture is boiling
• Mix until everything gels together
• Pour into the mold and spread the material evenly
• Dehydrate for 30 hours at 35°C

Five more experiments to go before the full side-by-side comparison.

Experiment 1/8 — Agar, Wool, Water.
Today I’m starting an 8-day bioplastic series, releasing one experiment every day. At the end, I’ll compare all eight materials side by side and show how each recipe changed the texture, flexibility, transparency, and overall behavior.

For this first test, I kept it simple: agar-agar, shredded raw wool, and water.
My expectation: a stiff material with a slightly fibrous structure.

The wool I used is wool I cleaned myself — raw, straight from the source, washed with hot water and soap, dried, then cut down into small fibers with scissors before mixing it in.

The reel moves fast, but you can already see the after: the making, the mixing , the pour, the setting, and the final dried sheet at the end.

This is just the starting point.
Seven more experiments coming, and then a full comparison so you can see exactly what changes between each recipe.
