Meeting #2 : Notes

We got together with our new group member Mitchell today, and we sat down and talked about a few more ideas. The notes I took are as follows, details / timeline / to do list will be in a post I'll write later this afternoon. Sorry if they're incoherant, I dont have the concentration to re-write them at the moment, they're doing construction work next door. Jackhammers are very...very distracting.

Proposal idea -

• See if people will actually record willingly.

  • Leave tape recorder in a public place and see what people say.

Figure out a way to divide assignment into even parts. 25% code ? 75% ... ?

Direction – recording thoughts, reflection.

Reflective point, seating ?

Listening point for other objects.
