Krista's notes for meeting of 12 Nov 2008
-
3D map of England—heart and crown on it, heart creating a circuit which runs though England, veins as road ways. King at centre of kingdom, heart at centre of body. Removal of heart erases roadways. Touch screen, which makes the map react.
-
Heart as a pump, when pump is being used the map lights up.
Feedback
-
problem of confusion when making problem too literal, confusion by directly making the King the Heart.
-
finding the right level of abstraction
-
map of England, blue and red stuff moving around the map—but not pretending that it is the heart. More of a reflection of the economic movement not the heart circulating.
-
possibility of using the information on the smart board as context, possibly being too visual maybe using a spoken text or audio
-
use of iconography of the period to represent the two—cuts and collages to tell the story, iconography of the history of playing cards
-
use of the selected quote in the room—with picture of Harvey showing a heart to the King.
-
political cartoon, historical context.
