Interactive Art: Brainstorming

1. What area of the school could really benefit by coming alive?
1) I think the area of the school that could really benefit by coming alive would be the cafeteria.  I think that the cafeteria would benefit from being intereactive/ coming alive because it is very plain and unexciting for students.   I think that by making it fun and interactive, it would help to boost the energy level of the many students in the cafeteria. 
b. How could this space be brought to life? (ex. what kind of theme? lights, sounds,
textures?)
2) I think that this space could be brought to life by giving it a fun, music based theme.  As more people entered or exited the cafeteria the volume of the music playing would change.  There would also be lights flashing from the walls that matched with the beat and volume of the music.  The tables would also be interactive at each setting, turning on only once someone is sitting in the chair at the spot.  The spots interactive at the table would enable students and teachers to be able to relax with a game, doodle etc. to lighten the mood or relax them.
c. What would the message of this space be? What will this piece of art create a conversation with the viewer? How will your interactive piece be especially important for teenagers and our Catholic community?
3) The message of this space would be that it is a fun place for students to relax and come to boost their energy.  This piece of art will create a conversation with the viewer therough the lights that would be flashing on the walls according to the music.  This interactive piece will be especially important for teenagers and our Catholic community because it would help the students the relax and relive stress.  I think that this is extremly important for teenagers since being stressed or overwhelmed can lead to very bad things.
 
d. How would the viewer be able to interact with your piece of art?
4) The viewer would be able to interact with my piece of art in many different ways.  One way that the art would be interactive would be through the students/teachers walking through the door to adjust the music.  They would also be able to interact with the digital screens on the tables.
