The idea of probing has so many interpretations. Here’s a few that start with the letter S: seeking, screwing, spacecraft, syringe. I had a lot of fun making the probes (and coming up with the S thing). I did very few technical or design sketches, and instead let found objects dictate the way each probe turned out. This enabled me to Zen out more than I normally do with my more involved pieces.
