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!)

Although I am happy with the end result, I can't help but think there is a lot to improve on this installation. 

One of suggestions I received was to, instead of hanging our installation on the wall, spread our tree on the ground and take full advantage of the space. I particularly was interested in the suggestion that we have the main center button be placed on a coffee table, because a coffee table is already associated with interactivity. I believe that spreading our branches and lights in different patterns along the ground would be very interesting in helping develop scale to our installation. Also, I think it would help promote interaction because people normally move through and interact with space more easily than with walls. I can imagine a whole room with lights and buttons laying across, and people pushing buttons to test how they interact with each other. 

One thing that I am proud of is that this idea is very scalable. Lights and buttons can scale further and further outwards to fill a whole room easily. One positive is that the larger scale this installation gets, its emphasis on collaboration grows. Scale can actually make this concept have a greater impact.
