Focus, focus, focus

Feedback on my research proposal confirmed with me that I may have been trying to bite off more than I can chew with 3 different projects. I really would have liked to see how they interacted with each other, but a full time schedule and with 4/5 weeks left until the major project is due would mean that I would most likely produce 3 undercooked projects.

So.

It leaves me with the choice of what scale to do. I think that the bus stop would be too small as I'm trying to explore how skin is viewed at various distances (far, near, within). The bus stop is limited to interpretations close to it. I'm not entirely convinced that in the chosen site, exploring skin on a building would be the right choice either.

Beaufort street is one way and moves traffic quite quickly, so I think that viewing and interpretations are predominantly at a pedestrian scale.

Therefore.

A bridge is probably a better option. I will replace the rick hart building with something that would ideally attract pedestrians from the james street mall to it.
