Reflection

In terms of successfully prototyping our concept and vision, we think this project pretty successful in getting our intended vision across. However, the main source of our difficulties arose from fine tuning the interaction itself. Would the users have to wear full on diving suits or would bathing suits work? Would people be safe swimming in bathing suits with literal trash floating in the pool, or would diving suits then be required to protect the exhibit visitors. Moreover, would the average person be invited for this experience, or is this more of a shock experience meant to prod donors to fund scientific research regarding the Anthropocene. If we were to redo this project, we would like to have a clearer and more reasoned process for these details of the interaction, as because of the timeline, we were not able to iron out the logistical details in favor for larger scale vision execution and prototyping.
