Project Three: Experience Evaluation
There will be six other Urban Intervention experiences taking place in Trinity Bellwoods Park on April 2.
One final task that requires volunteers is the observation and documentation of these experiences, for discussion during our last class on April 8.
I’ve prepared a form that can will help you perform this task. Part 1 features space for ethnographic observation, and reminders regarding how to best do this. Part 2 features a matrix conflating the five stages of experience with the five senses: how are the users’s senses stimulated in each stage, and what is the user’s response?
Each volunteer should prepare a blog post that includes:
- A description of the experience,
- Some documentation of the experience (as always, any blog-friendly medium is encouraged),
- The field notes collected in Part 1,
- The stimulus/response data collected in Part 2, and
- Any commentary or critique.
Volunteers, please organize yourselves so as to cover all six experiences. There can be duplicate efforts, but please don’t leave any of the experiences out (other than your own). So far, Keight, Melanie, Inwoo, Ainura and Queenie have volunteered for this task. Anyone else who wants to volunteer, simply comment on this post.
This is an essential task, and a great opportunity for anyone who feels like they haven’t sufficiently contributed to the Project Three effort.

I’d like to volunteer for this task as well. There’ll be a lot of us from documentation team so I can do both without harm for the whole documentation process.

I didn’t get a chance to look at any of the other group’s projects, by the time I had a moment, everyone else was packing up! I got some photos of the other’s cleaning up (and balloons flying into the sky and getting caught in trees) if anyone could use them.
