Have a think and lets discuss tomorrow whoever can come!!!
Hey guys,

So all that can make tomorrow please comment below and let everyone know as it is all a bit unclear. I will be at Marylebone from half 10 getting on with everything. Please get hold of people that may not receive this blog as it is crucial we all know where people are regards to what we are doing. I received emails from helen priestly- the exhibition organizer:

Hi Ben,

Really sorry but onedotzero have been really strict and now there will only be one projector with all the cascade projects being looped....has sophie not explained this?So your idea for the UV footsteps sounds great but there will be no specified space for that...but when you have your presentation during the day you could show it then?

We are setting up the exhibition this thursday so on the day all groups must bring their 5 A3 sheets of their work. You must arrive at the BFI at 10.30am..there is only one day to set up the whole exhibition. The details for formats etc, are in the attachments, (1 sheet is for the synopsis and the other four are anything you think is relevant to your work, ie sketches, models, images, text. Its very important you bring this work. We will then display it on the wall. If you have any questions just email me.
 
See you all on Thursday!
 
Exhibition Team

i love Ben's synopsis..nobody cld explain our project better ;-) Do you think it is worth to add that when the rain comes it washes off the 'past?' mayb not. many people where wondering what happens after...

Yesterday after presenting our proposal to another group of people i got an interesting feedback from an architect saying that an interactive element (which we r missing in response to Jason Bruges work) does not have to be immediate response to an input. It could be a delayed response(hours, days?)And also it wld b interesting if the output/response become input afterwards. he talked about creating a circle and about the end result not being lost after it happened. Not sure how we can use it..but i fouhd it interesting. i am just writing this to get our brains going again.
In the meantime here are sensors we cld mayb use (one or more of them): Touch and force sensors, pressure sensors, temperature sensors, accoustic (wind, voice?)sensors, infrared sensors, light and colours sensors, passive infrared sensors (just like those in th loos which turn light on when u walk in) Could the badges have a micro-chip in them?we don;t have to make anything, just propose it..my thinking hat is still on..
