Assignment Week 2

Part 1
Document your mirror exhibits on the blog.

- Give it a name/a working title. That helps to define the intention and it helps us to talk about it.
- Include at least one photo of your exhibit.

- Remind us what the ideal interaction would be.

- Keeping in mind that all the projects you will be doing for the first several week are prototypes of potential candidates for your final exhibit: What would your next steps be in moving this toward a successful final project exhibit? This can range from: "adjust a mirror" to "get more material and rebuild completely....". Be as detailed as you can about this. You could add a photo of a certain part that you think needs work.

-Optional, but strongly recommend: other ideas you would like to do related to "reflections". These can be ideas based on your own project, or on your classmates' projects, or some combination. Lots of ideas came up in our discussion yesterday. Document and build on those. No idea comes about in a vacuum. Build on ideas others have shared.
