Some Thoughts

After the discussions on Thursday some thoughts on the final project in Space:

The central aspect of the project needs to focus on Space.

If the project involves everyone, everyone needs a meaningful role.

But scope of project could be large, but, to avoid confusion, keep the premise simple.

Our guest lecturer offered the possibility of subtraction and the possibility of alteration to emphasize/enhance/clarify Space.

The project should emphasize/incorporate what you do best.

Please consider these thoughts when we come together again on Tuesday.

Merzbau and Rolo's Ridge

On Tuesday we will finish up with the projects and have a work session on the final project.

On Thursday, Professor Habel is presenting.

Please review the two sites above and read over the Merzbau article in listed in the section of the blog for Thursday's class. Be prepared for questions on the relationship between Rolo's ridge and Merzbau.

We will also have time for workshop on the final project.
