We made the final decision to work on the scavenger hunt. Our scavenger hunt culminates in the completion of a puzzle that has parts of our making assignments. We decided to work on creating what this completed puzzle will look like.
The project has a overarching theme of a ‘land of memories’ for our J-term. The background of the puzzle is from Oscar’s ‘Land of Memories’.
The projects included add the picture as follows:
- A woman on the beach: This takes inspiration from Shahram’s video on the pursuit of happiness. Many of the assignments are connected by this concept.
- Goldfish: From Shahram’s Making #6. In the web series “Ted Lasso”, Ted (a football coach) asks his players to be like a goldfish whenever something disturbing happens, since goldfishes have a very short memory.
- Underwater fishes: Shahram represented several happy emotions in this assignment.
- Noodle bowl of hopes and dreams: The building blocks of happiness – love, adventure, recognition and food. (will be included with physical origami)
- Space: Sid’s first assignment, signifies inter-personal space.
- Cyborg woman in chains: From one of Sid’s AI futuristic assignments. She wasn’t ‘happy’ with the toaster, and now she must suffer. She didn’t give her toaster enough ‘inter-personal’ space.
- Oscar’s Portal: wouldn’t you be happy if NYU had portal travel?
- Oscar’s Desert: The destiny of everything.
- Apple Fairy: Sara would kill us if this wasn’t there. Fairies are happy.
Tomorrow we will work on hints and clues + logistics.
