Final details on the show

Turning in your work
Turn in your work by Tuesday night. Make sure I have clear directions for how to find + open+ run your work.
Also, create the blog entry (for directions, see the last heading for this post) that will serve as the entry screen for your texts

The Show - where and when.
The Show will be in the Nancy Dryfoos Gallery (to the right of the main door to the Library (facing CAS). Sam and I will set up the show Wednesday morning so it will be open by noon. We will close it after 8:00 pm.

You are expected to be at the show from 6 - 7:15 - the time for our class. If you could stay until 8:00, that would be nice because I am guessing we will take more than the 1 hour 15 minutes for our class for each of you to speak.

Your presentations at the show.
Beginning at 6:00, I will introduce you as a group to whoever happens to be in the gallery. Then, one by one, you will introduce each of your works (see below for the format regarding things to cover) and answer questions. We will move from computer to computer so you can do a "show & tell". Not all guests will necessarily listen to the speakers - but that is OK.

During your presentation you should: state the name of the piece and indicate the genre it connects to- for this discussion you might mention other works from the course that gave you ideas; also name the software you used and how it allowed you to do what you did; discuss the ideas central to your piece; and then talk a little about how to "play" or interact with your work. You might also want to ask if there are any questions.

We will use a Blog post as the resting screen for guests to access your work. This post should have:
1. a short bio where you describe yourself in terms of your interests, accomplishments, and aspirations.
2. The names of each of your texts along with short descriptions (as per the assignment sheets - include genre) + how to access/play them.
3. Anything else you would like to say.

This should be fun!
