Homework
Due: Sunday Oct 13 2013
"Thoughtless Acts" exercise was assigned to you today. Inspired by some of the example observations you saw today, your task is to capture Thoughtless Acts you see around you and post them on the course web. Using a camera or hand sketch, capture one or two thoughtless acts that directly relate to your midterm project. (Hint: observe how people take advantage of the environment, objects, their body in the context relevant to your midterm project.)
Make sure to discuss 1) what is happening in the scene and 2) possible physical and/or virtual design solution(s).
Due Sunday Oct 13. We will have a discussion of your observations on Monday Oct 14.
