Brendan Dawes- Ailsa Lishman

I thought Brendan Dawes was a fascinating character, he literally was a child in an adults body. He wants to put fun back into work. He doesn't create work to please people, he doesn't do it to make loads of money, he just does it because he wants to.
He takes something ordinary and twists it- like these paperclips, looking unordinary shapes.


Brendan seems to come up with bizarre concepts and ideas, one which was interfacing play doh with digital. He wants to create magic. I really admire his way of working, not doing things to please everyone else. 
He wants the world to embrace technology and run with it. Combining digital with physical things. He created a piece which stored all the text messages him and his girlfriend had ever sent, and stored it inside a small box. 


'LIVING IN THE FUTURE IS AWESOME' 

One of his creations I found really amazing, was a 3D printer! That printed physical objects. How amazing would it be to buy something online and print it straight out into it's physical form?
