School of Visual Arts: MFA Designer as Author - The Prosthetics Project

The importance of play:Mariana Uchoa | toobers & zots

'Toobers & Zots Interactive Arms' is a fictional initiative from a toy manufacturer that has committed to distribute prosthetic arms made out of Toobers & Zots. The loss of an arm should not hinder children from playing and interacting with one another.

The Prosthetics Project was a 10-week
project for a 3-d design class in the SVA
MFA Designer as Author program.
