Three days, four (contributing) team members, and a cash prize for winning first place! See the story here.
We were assigned to groups, and collaborated with art and architecture students.
A brainstorming session was followed by an entire-group crit; the second day some more brainstorming and group work followed by a more private and quite useful critique; we didn’t get much sleep that night, knowing we were onto something good.
The idea was to rearrange public art on campus in a way that draws more people to notice and appreciate it. The art students thought about the art itself. The landscape students thought about what surrounds the art, bringing people to it or sending them away. The architecture students were basically useless, as usual.
I proposed hills – I felt that these are much more inviting than the existing flat lawn. Nobody wants a soggy ass.
Day three was presentation day; thank goodness we presented second and not last.
