Contemplative Video
The main concern is the power source, we need to consider the site in distance from the power.
We can camouflage the electric wire/ cord with our natural materials but our greater concern is that the contemplative video would act more as a counter-effect to the objective of our project. As we are providing an contemplative experience to the users to remind them of doing one thing at a time, slowing down, enjoy the present and be connected with the present, away from technology, valuing the journey instead of thinking of the far future/ a destination. We were thinking to not have it be part of our installation, instead of have some sort of label or introductory in the installation that invites the users to walk into a communal sharing viewing of the videos at another site.
