It was a blast working with the lovely and talented art students. They were great at interpreting ideas and conveying them through the art work. They made everything that much more realistic.

one of my favorite installations was the idream pill vending machine. i would have never thought of that. i'm sure tons of people stopped & looked at that poster & wondered what it was. it was really eye catching and official looking.

that it made me very proud to be a part of this class and our future
jamming process. i was very impressed by different ideas and means used
to catch the attention of the general public, and i can say without a
doubt that our projects have definitely left an impact on a significant
number of people. my favorite project by far was Finneman Universal and
their "device free" concept. i thought that business card was very,
very effective and aesthiccally pleasing, it defintely looked ligit.
Thhe fact that it was practically text free definitely left a lot of
room for curiosty and interest, and i found it very compelling; it
looked very professional. I also thought it was genius to make it on a
business card because this allowed for the production of many, which
enabled them to reach more people. the website was also very well put
together and came out very nicely, and all in all i thought the whole
thing was very well thought out, from the logo creation to execution.
While this was my personal favorite, i think that every group had their
strong points and things that made thier project unique and powerful.

i thought my group and i would have to spend today making our magnets,
however, when i got to class i was delighted to learn that the art
students had already finsihed making them. that definitely saved us so
much time, and allowed us to get started on installation right away. i
had a wonderful time distributing aftifacts from our future around
campus. It was exciting to know that everything came together quite
seemlessly, and now was our chance to really reach the general public.
we were able to put almost all of our magnets on cars, only saving a
few for ourselves and the presentation. in the beginning we were more
focused on putting them on cars that consume more gas, like big trucks
and SUV's, but after awhile i started putting them on any car because i
thought that limiting our intending population would definitely bias
our results. David, on of our art students, works for Ka Leo and so we
went and talked to the editor and she loved the idea of featuring a
picture of our installation process in thursdays edition. i was really
excited about it because i know that our project would catch the
attention of a much wider audience then it would have otherwise. all in
all, it was a very successull day.

Unfortunatly there isn't to much to report on today, our printing ended up consuming our entire class time forcing us to postpone going public, but we plan to be up and running Thursday morning.

Installation time?
observe..unfortunately we weren't able to get that far into the process
since we were prepping the posters and such. However looking at the
posters today, I'm sure we will get some crazy attractions. I'm hoping
that the pills will pull through later too so that we will have
something else to give out. Look out for our posters everyone! Dream
vendors!

The thing that particularly stood out to me in the class proper once we reunited with the art class was how far we had traveled from out initial ideas of the project, focusing on traffic and highways, to wending back to energy and on into nuclear energy, finally coming once more into the domain of cars by virtue of the concept of the nuclear car.

I think this was a great project; I enjoyed working with the art students! After class, I saw a few installations from other groups on cars in the parking lot. I'm looking forward to seeing what the other groups did.

public. Some of the other groups put their projects in action today and
it was cool to hear what people on campus had to say about them. I am
excited to put our project in action and see what the results of it are.
