Approach

I decided at first to go through as many Weeknd songs as I could on Spotify. Then, I started again listening to this piece and figuring out what exactly made it different from the other work. I realized it was mostly how lively it seemed to be. It was not soft or round, it seemed to pop. The chorus in particular is very reliant on a fast beat and moments of loud sound. When I tried to visualize these aspects, I realized the best representation would be a sort of round structure filled with mounds and towers on the surface so it seemed as though it was exploding outward. 

Unfortunately I had no inner structure to the product, and it is made out of only paper and glue-water. I decided to use paper towels instead of newspaper because they are tougher and would hold the structure better. I simply kept building out of the central structure, adding in those towers of different sizes while making sure the surface always remained fairly smooth.
