Hi Jay,

So sorry I haven't come back to you earlier, it was a mad week. Will
be back to London tomorrow afternoon and back to drawing stuff etc.
Until then I am going to write something into the proposal form and
send it to you tonight.
Thanks so much for your work and doing the blog! I will add photos
and the links I have been collecting in the next days if you could
give me permission and the password please. Also I found some
definitions of "negative data", and some interesting articles about
the publishing of it. I think it would be really nice if we both
could define it ourselves and put it as statements onto the A2 poster.
If you have any photos taken of the growing bacteria or so, please
send them to me.

I like the maze idea, also as a visual concept. I could make a
drawing as the one attached, more as a maze though and I could make a
very minimalistic A2 layout. In regards to the secret exit, we could
punch a hole into the poster and put the actual design proposal on
the back side.

I agree it is a thinking process and still hard to imagine a final
design outcome. I think though it would be great if we could propose
different possible product outcomes, to make it easier to calculate
the costs and materials. Then, as an additional idea, we can make the
proposal of how to present this object, as you say as an installation
work. This could be a part of the poster visualisation.

It will be a last minute proposal and I am really sorry we haven't so
much time in the end to polish everything. I'll go to college on the
28th to print the A2 and the propsal. Shall we meet in the next days
to sign the form or is it better for you if I just come along your
work and pick up everything? I can hand in on Saturday morning or I
give it to my friend Andere and she will hand in ours with hers.

Ok talk to you later :)
Berit
