Force connection/Empathy Exercise (Broom)

Force connection/Empathy Exercise (Broom)

My group chose broom for the exercise. Firstly we listed down the original function of the broom. An example would be for cleaning purposes. We believe that the broom can be improved and have many other functions. The broom could alternatively be a wig, prosthetic arm,imaginary guitar or a weapon of protest. The broom could be used as a pun. The sound of the car's engine when it starts up (broom broom). We see a palm tree in the shape of a broom too.  One thing which I found interesting is the broom being an artist paint brush. This reminded me of the abstract expressionist which did large scale canvases and needed cheap and efficient materials to work with. He used various household items as a substitution with the brushes. It broke convention at that time with how we perceive the broom to be used as.
