Well here are some of todays photos. I basically wanted to follow through with my main idea at least for today. I tried focusing on locations and situations rather than objects. So I hopped on the number 10 and ended up in Ruddington... Uploaded onto flickr because it's easier to do lots at once...

I was thinking that you could have an interactive image of a bus stop with a map on it and then once you select a location you would get a video of buying a ticket and then sitting down... As soon as you have sat down there is a rush of images over about 5 seconds that suddenly stops and then you have another interactive part where you could choose where to go at the location, maybe explore the location some how. A rush of images for the trip back. The audience could be Nottingham students and it could aim to get them out of the city center and make them explore... It's kind of like the (short) Situationism movement where one of the ideas was that you can try to get yourself lost in a city, on purpose... That way you find new things. If you don't do that then you end up living a routine with the same thing every day... Only in the end the Situationalists took it too far like the rest of the Dada and Surrealism movements.
I also gathered 3 1/2 hours of sound too. Most of it is just hiss but with key things along the way that can be extracted. If it was done with flash then we need to think about sound or it will be crap hehe.

It was also pretty fun to do all this too haha! ¯\(^_^)/¯
