Final experiment

The experiment regarding, changing colors interests me the most and is most rebellious out of the three experiments. It is interesting because usually people assume the orange to be orange color and coloring the orange pieces was totally opposite this assumption.

Project - 2 Experiment - 3

The third experiment I choose to do is eating an orange with fork or toothpicks instead consuming straight with hands, which can be counted as “Rebellion” as well because while thinking of orange, people usually assume it obviously to eat with hands. For this experiment I laid orange pieces peeled, half with the white skin and half without the white skin. Through this I want to experiment that whether there is a change in taste or not by eating with fork or toothpicks instead by hands. After the experiment I found that one person enjoyed the orange, eating with hand and the other person liked eating with fork because with fork it was more juicer and full flavor at once, in the mouth. The interesting thing was that none of the three persons picked up the piece with the white skin. 

 

 The above photo have the orange pieces peeled but left side is with white skin and the right side without white skin.

These photos above shows that people prefer peeled orange pieces without the white skin.

 The pieces with white skin are as it is whereas pieces with no white skin are reduced.

Project - 2 - Experiment - 2

The second experiment was cutting the orange into different shapes and comparing it with the orange cut into simple way as “Austerity”. First peeling the orange and then cutting it into different shapes. I choose this experiment because was just curious that whether people choose complicated pieces to eat or the simple easy pieces to eat. On experimented people chose the pieces, which were easy to eat and was more juicer. Keene reports that according to the Matos, "Fruit is so delicious and healthy, and making the fruit into lovely creations that people can enjoy is a lot of fun” (2012).

 The above photograph shows the different shapes of orange pieces such as: - in circular, square, rectangle, semi-circle, sun and other shapes.

 In the above photograph, the person chose the orange piece that was easier to eat.

 In this photo, the person chose the piece that seemed more juicer and biggest in size.

This person also chose the piece that was easier to eat.

This photo shows the remaining shapes.

Project - 2

The activity I am experimenting in regard to senses is “eating an orange”. This activity interests me because it kind of fascinates me that how people have various ways of cutting and consuming the same thing. For eating an orange people has various ways for example: - cutting with knife into pieces and then sucking it and by peeling off the skin etc.

The first experiment I did was changing the color of the orange pieces into green, blue, black and red and observed which color is picked most by people. The word I choose for this experiment is “Rebellion” because this experiment is opposite the eating an orange of orange color. From the name of orange itself one assumes the orange to be orange color and is eaten without any doubt but before eating colored orange, a person observes and think about it and then eat it. A person chooses the color which he/she finds the most attractive (Luo, 2006).

Below are the photographs, taken during the above experiment: -

In the above photograph, I first dried the orange pieces inthe sun because they were too moist for applying the food color. I used red, green, blue and black food color.

 The above two photos shows that people choose the color which is attractive to them.

 This photo shows that the most attractive color i.e. red is chosen the most.
