Naomi, of the Bloomingdale group, interviews the owner of the Window Cafe.
The different components of our exhibit are the map, the interactive, the creative writings, and the title. I am working on the intro and a poem. I think it’s going well. My partner and I are getting along great.
What I look forward to during the design process is the chance to express my own ideas in a public exhibit. This makes me feel important enough for my work to be published for the world to see. I’m also looking forward to working with my other classmates to build an exhibit. Something small gets imported from each of us to create something huge and complete. These are the things I am looking forward to during the exhibit design process.

My first impressions pf my neighborhood, Bloomingdale, have changed slightly from site visit #1 to site visit #4. In the activity we did today we really looked and analyzed our neighborhood more closely. This definitely did change my perspective of the neighborhood in both positive and negative ways. On site today we explored and discover hidden parts of the neighborhood which also changed what I thought about Bloomingdale.

This photo is my favorite because it shows the outskirts of the block we explored in Bloomingdale.
