Jaaga

Our first trip to Jaaga (the place where we are supposed to put our installation up for display)
was a bit of a shock. The space we had been alloted was tiny! Myrthe could barely fit, this was going to be a probelm.


After a few negotiations we finally managed to get a slightly larger space. The important thing was that it was almost as high as our previous room. Of course it has its drawbacks but it had its brownie points too.
For instance we could place the projector much further away now and the floor is just gravel which could give an interesting effect. Since the structure is mainly a scaffolding putting up our panels would be quite simple.


The scaffolding did have a drawback though. Closing up the space to make it dark was going to be a problem. Also the sound would travel and since more intermedia projects are going to be displayed there will be a lot of disturbances while the viewer is inside.


To conclude it all we now had a space. It was time to get all our glitches sorted and get to work.

The project brief

This project is aimed at translating concepts in to experiences involving senses. 
Sensorial Design, An interface to any experience, whether technological, physical, or conceptual,
must have a message and a reason for communicating it and begin with the creation of meaning and the development of appropriate types of interactivity. 
Any product or art installation need not stop at being visually rich; it can interact with all the senses.
