KQED and scavenger hunts
After all that we have been learning about locative media I was really curious to experience a locative project. Im so glad that we finally did! Now I feel a greater connection and understanding of locative art. I think one of the strong points of the project was the variety of natural sounds and voices layered together. It was an all around enjoyable and educational experience at KQED. And what a nice surprise to meet Pico Sanchez and get a little of his story as a muralist in the Mission.
As for our classes scavenger hunts I had lots of fun! It was really interesting to see how different from one another they turned out. I think because we have a small class we have been able to get a peek at everybody’s personality and we all have something special to bring to the table in terms of creating projects. I had a blast and cant wait to see what we all come up with next time. Next project is going to be even better after we have the opportunity to smooth out all the potential kinks we found out this time.
KQED was the most interesting experience I ever had. I could feel like we are traveling the time while we were walking the street in our real place. I wonder what else does not have ability to tell about themselves such as finding out about grampa”s shoes while I am eating some cheese cake. You know, making history about grampa, and the same time makinh history about my cheese cake being eaten.

The chance to get out and participate with KQED was a fantasitc experience. Though we have been working with our own locative media projects, it was a breath of freash air to see how the professionals set up and maintian a locative media landscape. I enjoyed the walk around the artists workspaces and learning about their experiences in creating thier art.
