during the critique, I found lots of varying opinions regarding most of my concepts. After taking the general comments about my concepts I decided to go with the piggy bank which got the most feedback and overall positive outlook. The feedback I got from my peers about the piggy concept made me realize that it had the most potential for possible commentary and substance.  the most significant aspect of the critique that I decided to add was the coins; they serve to fuel the idea that the wrong thing is being stored and what should be is only used to prop up the problem. refined concept and original comparison   finally, The relationship between this object and remix culture.

I finally settled on using the body of the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird to hold toothpicks.
