Final project!

Ok! That's it, we're done with the final project, and it turned out pretty good. We changed it last minute, and I felt that our piece was in a constant flux. What we eventually changed it into wasn't necessarily the 'final' output, because we so easily could have changed it again ... and, sure enough, one hour later our piece was in flux again! This time it was divided into smaller portions between the group members, and brought home as a memory of what once was (while most of it ended sadly enough into the dustbin), and what once could have been. Very interesting, challenging, demanding, fun, useful, learning experience. The process itself is somewhat documented in this blog, but can never be fully documented, just hints of experiences and thoughts, glimpses of collaborative effort that made this thing realize itself. I have no doubt in my mind that this thing were in much more control over us, that we ever had over it. The good thing is that we actually acknowledged that at a relatively early stage, and thus did not have any grand expectations (maybe secretly hoping for some wanted result in some weak moments, but never for long) of what should come out of the kiln (if we even would be able to get something in the kiln in the first place!) ... Anyways, we understood that this project would not be finished until after the critique, and that was a good thing.

End part 1 ...
