Seeing the wood for the trees, or projections for projects....

I have finally arrived at the final three or four ideas I will use in my project and have also discovered a novel way of displaying this at the degree show. Hallelujah! Chortle chortle, thought I'd never get there. My website is almost complete and I found some great PHP tutorials for creating forums and SMS interaction. My intro animation to my site and any promo stuff is also complete now too, so I am finally seeing the wood for the trees! Kevin from 360tv is coming out to Gray's on Thursday to film some of the projections for documentation, once I get projectors from Morag, and I'm meeting again with Jack from Peacock to look at Jitter_ww software and see what can be done with that as an interactive element too. The promo stuff is all going fine and my friend has offered her studio for setting up the promotional stuff and trying out some of the other graffiti trials. So, so far so good. I'm sure it will all be far more complicated than I'm hoping - but here goes......

films, projectors and motivation



Had another meeting with 360 tv the other day and have finally arrived at a date to organise the promo launch for the portal. I also got all the promo stuff in including my LED balloon idea and flyers. Going to film everything now and document it all so that I can include it all in the show and also create a little showreel of what I've been doing. Also going to have a look at a 3d scanner over at Scott Sutherland school of architecture, and hopefully use that for displaying prototypes etc. Nick Clarke, the external examiner, (who turned out to be really helpful and really nice and positive about our work!)also gave me a link to a PhD student doing similar stuff which should be pretty helpful and interesting to see how she got on. Still heaps to do, which is beginning to dawn on me now too. And also get the degree show organised and New Blood show needs thinking about too......
