Maps and Journeys : Meaning Progress

Last night the entire group contributed ideas over Skype to help give the project a more meaningful approach. So far we came up with two main concepts :
  • Following the theory that an ant, by itself, cannot do very much, yet a team of ants can move objects numerous times bigger than themselves. We were thinking that similarly for the nervous system, the entire system has to be working in order to carry out a task. This could be reflected in our installation by the requirement of having two or more people to activate the visuals etc. If a single person tried, there would be no response. This would put an emphasis to the audience on team work and how we can accomplish amazing things together. 
  • What would happen if the brain and nervous system was to shut down? We thought about whether we could engage the audience in this experience, by making the movement of the visuals slower and darker gradually over a period of time. This could possibly get the idea across the part-taker of the installation to appreciate being healthy etc. 
If we chose to further either idea, it will require a lot more research into those particular areas in order to get an accurate representation. Overall, we are still coming up with a bigger meaning behind why we are creating this, but I am confident we are on the right track.
