Due Thurs. Oct. 14

Students must present further research findings about their project. All students are expected to demonstrate a clear message for your design / event / environment / happening. Make sure you can formulate the people this speaks to, the cultural message, and the place it will be installed. Those items should all work together to meet your goal.

Having something clearly written on paper for Thursday's class will be helpful, but you do not need to formally write up a proposal at this stage. Rough notes will suffice. Typed up notes would be better. Complete sentences are helpful. But I will pick it up on Thursday.

Answer the following questions in the writing you present this Thursday:
  1. When people walk away from your design, what will resonate with them the most, what will they remember?
  2. This memorable message should be clear. Not too poetic, not too vague.
  3. What are the actionable items people will take upon reading this message?
Tori, Erinn, and Corrie will have working prototypes to show, that can be made at a smaller scale than the final product to be made.
