1. Explain the layers of interface in the project.
2. Explain the interactivity in the project. How do the viewers participate? What are the roles? Is the interface a success? How was the navigation?
3. What is the audience changing?

1. The layers of interface that we are using are projections screens and television screens. The projection screens are going to be very large as to surround the viewer. The smaller television screens will be in the center causing the viewers to have to walk closer to the projections.
2. We are forcing the viewers to unwillingly interact with the projections. Since the televisions in the center force them closer to the projections, their shadows are cast onto the images. We will try to make it seem that we do not want them to block the art to cause frustration and confusion since there is no way that the viewer can move away. The roles of the viewer is to obscure images in the projections and television. Even though they are blocking the media, it is still engulfing them. The room will be difficult to navigate around comfortably. The idea is to create discomfort.
3. In this project there really is nothing the audience can change except for the flow of traffic within the room and obscuring the image. It is not designed to be permanently altered. The shadows will alter the videos for brief moments.

Habib's videos

Hey, these are the videos that I will most likely be using for my segments for the project.

I feel that I'll be able to pull some interesting quotes and sound bites from these segments, and will hopefully make for a good narrative.

Daniella's Videos

My screen is about entertainment. I took videos of various entertaining things from television, film, and video games.

















There are two more videos: One of me playing Pokemon and another of me playing Tetris... they took to long to upload to blogger.
