Le proposale de final

So after a lot of thinking, I think I have something in mind to do. I guess.. I do.. might.. maybe..
What I have in mind is kind of a mood-buddy. The physical structure goes like this:
A four-sided pyramid. The triangular sides refer to different moods/personalities and the square base is where the structure opens out to life.

The Narrative:
Why prism?
If light is to mood-buddy, spectral colors are to different moods... what?!!
Mood-buddy is a full character, but when it is placed on different sides, the character changes mood depending on that.
The main idea is this; sometimes it's quite hard to get along with life and sometimes all we need is comfort from someone/anyone. The mood-buddy is there just to share feelings.


The Technicality:
Four sides = four buttons. The toy will have a weight inside that will be heavy enough to press the button on whatever side it is.
As output I'm not sure what to use: LED and sound is my plan for now. The square base is where the output is going to come from.


What's up next:
First I have to decide on which kind moods I need and how to represent them. Later on I will start working on the patch and board. Hopefully..
