Screen Refinement

> Previous design works really well with the clicking to remove the circles, it incorporates the audience well and presents an intervention the controls what the audience can and can't do.
> Doesn't really bring attention to the body as it's on desktop, however this is what the phone version is for.
 - This could adopt the walking feature with the phone to take advantage of a phone being a portable device.

Made alterations to video:


- Circles were made smaller so could cover the text while keeping it legible. This mean these circles could be added to the restricted element. The user can't move the cursor over these point. 
- Once the user had cleared all the circles possible they would appear again, making it like a game, but also gives the audience something to figure out. 
- I feel it embodies the exhibition in a simple way, forces the audience to behave in a particular way. 


Where to go with phone screen outcome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8M-dGPXZxec
> Concept is good, feel as though it represents the exhibition experience well.
 - The pictures and text could do with being larger to make it easier to read and clearer to see what the image is.
 - The pop up prompt shouldn't disappear, I like the idea of having a collection of prompts on the website that the audience might stumble across as they continue to use it.
> The walking element should be added, it would bring the body in on a new level, takes advantage of mobile phones being a portable device.

Crit with Zoe, Emily and Tom
We decided to have a final crit with our crit groups just to check in with everyone, make sure they're okay and tie up loose ends of projects.

Feedback:
> People suggested to incorporate the thermochromic stickers into the exhibition, these could be part of the interactivity and would allow people to place them over the work if they wish.
 - This could be a really interesting idea to include, would only be able to do it for the red and blue sticker as I haven't found anywhere that does any more colours than that.
 - Still want to incorporate all four colours as this allows for more prompts to be given.
> Suggestion for a prompt could be to place the sticker where you stood.
 - This is a really interesting idea but it clashes with the circles on the floor.
 - Could be place on the floor at the first piece of work you looked at?
> From this Zoe suggested the circles on the website could fade away rather than instantly disappear, representing the thermochromic stickers.
 - I like this idea, if I include the thermochromic stickers this alteration will be made to the screen versions.


  • Do I include thermochromic stickers? 
  • Would it become one element too many?
  • What would it do for the exhibition? 

 - Maybe instead of the audience placing the red sticker red stickers could already be placed over text in the exhibition, such as labels for the work, then the prompt would be to place your hand over the labels to reveal the work.
 - This would link well to the website too.
 - Or could the prompt be to place the red stickers over any text they see in the exhibition, and then to place their hands over them to be able to read what it says?

^ These ideas would add another element of interactivity to the exhibition, and make the audience aware of their body, hands and heat.

Alterations to make:
> Cover of publication to avoid becoming repetitive.
 - Exhibition pamphlet cover, ticket and poster be the same (same with web as they're all related).
 - Exhibition catalogue be different on the cover same style but made to suit the publication more (lower down one). 
> Exhibition incorporate a thermochromic sticker, this is to be placed over text.
