Custom-Showcase: Interactive custom Qee by Dan Barojas for Spaghetti Projects "Civil War" Show
Artist/Designer Dan "R5" Barojas shares with us his submission for the Spaghetti Projects "Civil War" show, with an interactive custom Egg-Qee named "The Freedom Qee" ~ inspired by slavery and the quest for freedom during the civil war. Where is the "interactive", you may ask? Dan mentions: "The "Freedom Qee" features large face area where the toy has been treated with chalk writing paint and it is an interactive and has a writable surface, people are encouraged to write on the face with an anti-slavery quote."
