WHAT IS TWIST? HOW IT ALL BEGIN? First of all to get to the final result of TWIST, I had to make an investigation into the history of tequila with questions like: when it was discovered?, where it was discovered?, how it was discovered?, who were the first people to use it?, As well as the different ways you can drink tequila, and finally in what kind of celebrations people use to drink it? The next step to be analyzed was the main needs and requirements of the principal users, in this case which persons were totally familiar with this drink, also the most important difficulties and problems arising the ergonomic at the time people are drinking tequila.

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS

WHAT IS A BIODIGESTER? HOW IT ALL BEGIN? A biodigester It’s a device in which organic wastes are deposited and then decomposes to be turned into compost. To get the information needed for the investigation we used the IDEO cards method. The main constraints presented in the project are: the use of resistant materials to high temperatures, the high weight, the necessary measures so that it can produce the right amount of compost and finally do not pass on the price agreed.
