For Jo

Ok so I totally missed the deadline for this last blog due to thanksgiving break craziness...but better late than never, right? Well hopefully :). Ok so, Jo and I haven't gotten a lot of chances to talk about our projects with each other yet, so Im not sure how much Ill be able to actually post at this moment in time. There is one thing that kind of stuck out to me though while ive been looking up some things related to the clay tablets. From what I understand...youre recreating these types of tablets that had once accidentally preserved bits of culture you wouldnt really excpect to be preserved, so if youre doing things from now, should the tablets be broken and shattered and beaten? Like with some bits of writing missing, and breaks and cracks...or some that have been pieced back together like a puzzle....I dont know if you have made any like this or not...but i noticed one you were working on that seemed reletively smooth and perfect. It just seems that if these things were originally preserved because of accidental fires , and have been dug up centuries later...then they shouldnt be in the best condition..and since your first project unexpectedly shattered, it could be an interesting link between your semesters work. The only other thing that comes to mind at the moment is the manner of installation...ar ethese things going to be displayed on a wall or table like in a museum? or will they have some different sort of set up. like still half buried in dirt and stones that might require a bit of archeological interactiong or something....I dont know I like interactive things so i thought it would be neat. I found some interesting images that might be able to describe more of what im talking about...but for some reasons i had some issues trying to get them posted on here...im a little computer illiterate....so if youre interested you know how to get ahold of me :) Ok...thats all for now!
