The Glen Canyon Park presentations was a unique opportunity to display the work we have created over the course of our semester to real people. Real people!
Not that our class isn't real people, but you know, people who aren't people who have been focused on watersheds since September.
Besides logistical problems (the room was quite cramped, the librarians attitudes towards us rivaled that of elderly Catholic nuns armed with metal rulers, that projector had seen better days) I think it went really well. The audience was engaged, they seemed excited when they actually recognized places around SF that we had investigated, and all of the work was well recieved.
It was a new experience for me, as I usually only present to people within the DAI major who understand work as a process, rather than to people who are just critically evaluating the end product with no further knowledge of the steps it has undergone. I'm excited for the gallery showing at the end of this semester, where we can hopefully still invite people from the public to mingle with those that have witnessed the entire design process and I can get very different feedback from multiple resources.
