Tracing movement

Audio interview following a person around the Dunedin Public Art Gallery observing the behaviour and interaction with different art and exhibitions.

Movement around an exhibition - Stop Motion

This visual stop motion podcast demonstrates the process I went through to create a model which illustrated the movement of a particular person around an art gallery. The movement is traced by a marker and the colour on the walls represents where they stopped and took in the art on the walls. The audio podcast that is uploaded above is a recorded informal interview of the person who I was observing walking around the gallery which relates to this visual podcast. I wanted to show the process of the observation I took and the path in which the participant took and thought stop motion was the best way to demonstrate this. After further interviews I will add more paths to this model to show the different ways people behave in an exhibition environment and see if the founding principles of exhibition design really do make an impact on the way someone behaves.
