We started on Wednesday by just drawing whatever we saw for the exhibit, no specifics, just whatever came to mind. We got lucky, and people ended up picking whole different areas for doodle analysis. Rafael focused on the space as a whole, and how people would interact with different layouts...how having an exhibit split into pieces would be different that having a single structure to gather around. Justin focused on the footprint and overall shape of the exhibit...the figurative boxes everything else would fit inside. Both Julie and I looked at what the water should be doing. Julie had an idea that choosing different paths should cause different things to happen...one path invokes light while another invokes sound. My doodle was looking at a possible stucture, and some of the individual interactive parts.
On Friday, we started making more decisions, zeroing in on what Justin had been doing on Wednesday, as the basic footprint seemed like a good place to start. After lots of discussion, the final doodle had two water flow paths going in opposite directions, with niches breaking up a long rectangle-based shape with only a ffew curves to the basic outline. The maximum height for anything solid was decided to be between 4 and 5 feet to avoid being intimidating. The idea of a roof was discussed, but it was found to have many drawbacks.
