Project-Guided Learning

Whether I'm getting ready for an event or just making something for fun, I've got a lot of satisfaction from projects where I teach myself something new. That usually means a new material, tool, or technique. Red Scout taught me to use existing things and assemble them into a costume; Ghostbusters got me into pink foam; Training Dummy started me on EVA. I have a few ideas that will guide me towards more electronics, new types of structures, and at some point I'm going to have to learn how to sew.

Does anybody else prioritize certain projects that make you learn something new?

What I'm Playing:

  • Main Campaign: The Stanley Parable, Don't Starve, Pokemon Y
  • Side Quest: Pinball Arcade
