Bristol Design Festival - check

Bristol Design Festival finished today.

Report:

• 95 people took part in the big notebook (more than expected);
• 3 pens are gone (it's part of it);
• all the notebooks safely back;
• lots of postcards / business cards given away;
• 5 post-its with the title of my project in the wall "what you most liked in the BDF?" (as soon as I could see);
• lot of enthusiasm earned from watching people interacting with my project;
• good direct feedback;
• my desk is back to my room;

;)

Overall: Positive!

Sound!

The website has sound now! Me and Ben Mitchell (who comes from animation/sound) stayed here the whole day yesterday recording, editing and mixing sounds made out of paper, pen, books.

I'm very pleased with the work we've done! It's amazing how sounds from tapping on paper, closing a pen, ripping paper, leave a book fall on the floor,... can become such a good resource for rhythm just by isolating and mixing together.

Thank you very much, Ben!

The record was all made with normal microphone (a Guitar-hero microphone, to be very honest) and it worked quite well for the quality I needed.
