Overheard @ Hunt Library

Intention

Write about the big ideas behind your project? What are the goals? Why did you make it? What are your motivations?

Context

Include references and discussion of artists, artworks, movements or aesthetic frameworks/techniques/approaches that inspired your outcome, process or approach. What has informed your outcome? How does your outcome relate to other artists and their work? What ideas, styles, or themes did you draw on any why? You must cite at least 3 critical texts, theories or works.

Process

Describe how you translated your concept into the outcome. How did you approach the exercise? What were the design choices? What challenges were encountered and how did you resolve them? What ideas did you generate and how did you refine or reject them? What approaches did you reject?

Product

Describe the outcome. What did you create, how, etc.? How did you compose your image? What styles, methods or techniques did you use? What tools and technologies were involved?

Critique

Critically evaluate the success of your own work. What does your inner critic say about this work? Did you match intent and outcome effectively? (note: use the framing questions to guide your response!)

Reflection

Briefly outline what you took away from this project. What did you learn? What would you do differently?

This is an interesting concept. I am kind of wondering if this is legal because it seems like recording someone without explicit permission. But that would be pretty cool to experiment with anyways, and the speech-to-text seems like it would be good enough to document the conversations, but also with current speech-to-text technology would still leave some room for mistakes which would be fun to look at.

About

Our project will capture snippets of idle conversation around a casual study space by hanging microphones in cans from strands of twine on the ceiling. These microphones will pick up bits of speech, translate them to text, and then tweet them in real time to a public Twitter account. The project is intended for people to interact with it, but not necessarily actively.
