I have four possible final designs to choose for submission, but I think I will go with the first three.

Developing patterns
Design 1: These design developments started off with using the pathfinder tool and morphing all the ipod symbols together to create an abstract pattern.
Once I got the pattern I played around with the fill and stroke to achieve these different patterns.
Design 2: Again I have used the ipod symbols and the pathfinder tool, but this time i have made the pattern more symmetric by reflecting the pattern.
In the floral like patterns i have used the rotate tool to make a motif and then copy and pasted then changed the scale. I quite like these designs but don't think they fit my machine/futuristic theme.
Design 5: This design was created by using the path finder tool and merging the pause and stop symbols together. I then made a whole strip of these and distorted it to give it depth.
Design 6: This final design is a development from Design 3, I have taken the triangle motif and used the rotate tool to make these hexagons. I developed it further by making the pattern smaller in scale and then I decided to add purple into the pattern and it created a larger hexagon pattern within the pattern.

Design 3: This design was created with using just the play symbol and manipulating it with the transform tool.
This first design was one of the first patterns I had developed and when I got the feedback from Vanessa I realised there were few parts of the design that I needed to clean up.
Instead I decided to re-do the design but still look fairly similar to the previous.
Design 4: In design development 4 I have taken the wheel out of the cassette and cut it in half. I then used the rotate and scale tool to make the petal like motifs and then rotate them to create the flower motif.
I quite like how these designs flow, but I'm not sure if they fit with my theme, with the futuristic, geometric and machine look.

My Colour Palette
This is my colour proportions for my final developments.
I wanted there only to be a splash of orange and all the tones of the purple to be equal proportions and same with the blue.
There will be a majority of black because to get the glowing effect my motifs will be black with a different colour stroke line.
