Andrea loved lots of things about the city. She became a bartender for 15 years in a bar in the city. She loved to singing in local Boston area bars and restaurants as well. in adition to this, she loved the beach growing up. Andrea loved to walk around the city to go shopping as she really felt that she was never alone in the city. She was very passionate about singing all throughout her life. Our idea was to incorporate singing with a microphone that lights up a city built with parts of her life.

Additional precedent

first prototype

wasn't asthetic and didn't have any symbolism

Iteration 2

added beach

Rearranged some of the buildings to improve the looks.

Using the feedback that we received after our first presentation we had to decide how to add more symbolic meaning the our prototype.

We decided after thinking that we would create something where we would keep a sound sensor inside a microphone and once someone sang into it, it would light up the LED lights connected to the sound sensor which would light up a city.

This is a performance stage that we are currently trying to find better solutions to make it stand out, we are seeing what are the best ways to make a location stand out.
