Experiment 2




Hi all

Here is an email I sent to Russell

"Russell,

As I said on your blog, I am unable to make it today, stuck here in the
office nstead, but I would like some feedback on the images if possible. I
have three rough's at the moment and will probably switch 2 and three in order.
page one and 2 are almost where I want them (minus some text and a few details)
but page 3 at the moment is simply a rough indication of where it is headed, the
idea being that it is the nucleus, the rock that the other two can orbit
around.

A few quick questions too,

1. Are we going to be displaying them simultaniously on three screens or
one at a time?
2. Do the textures need to be embedded in the 3 images, kind of like
popups or rollovers?
3. Will the textures need to able to tile to form seamless surfaces or
can they be standalone?

I would appreciate it if there is any chance of getting feedback by
12ish today so I can look at it and respond before the end of the work day.

Thanks

Noa Tranter"

If anyone has feedback for me I would love it!!

Thanks

Hospitals

hi everyone,

Sorry for the wait on the upload of my vid, it will be up soon I was a little disorganised heading to uni today...

Anyway, I have been having some thoughts on hospitals...

So, thinking about hospitals and their function, they are there in a function to turn sick people into well people, to take the symptoms of sickness and do what they can to ease the pain. It can be considered an extension of the idea of pain and the relative treatment that one might seek because of it. Plastic surgery is pain of the self conscious, dental is pain of the mouth, mental is pain of the mind or of society, prisons are pain of the behaviour (a greater stretch of the definition than I could probably get away with).

So my thoughts continue on the idea of a hospital and the relationships with pain and am wondering if something that is considered a 'treatment facility' or something which could be considered to 'ease' pain could come in this category. Maybe we could stretch the definition of hospitals for my purposes to be an artists studio for people with disabilities or something along those lines. Something like the hospital which used laughter as the best medicine.

How far can we take hospital?

I eagerly await posts...
