Following on from our first idea we thought we would create an installation that was more engaging and informative about the sites around Belfast Belfast Belfast
ADD SKETCHES
In our second idea we thought it would be interesting if we started playing with light. In St. Anne's Square there is a lot of natural light coming in from above due to the construction being is so open, the walls are also white and so a lot of light is reflected. We thought we could use this to our advantage when designing our second idea. A large box was basically our idea, although this sounds relatively simple the layout of the design along with other features made it interesting. Keeping in mind our first idea of music was going to bring life and atmosphere into St. Anne's Square we thought a sitting area made from large earphones would be somewhat relaxing, original perhaps or eye catching. But not quite original enough, we needed to become more creative.

| Creating the model for IDEA 2 |
Light was what we were going to explore, we thought of displaying pictures of key locations around Belfast on coloured acetate sheets with information such as directions and history below each picture. Earphones hanging down from each picture of a key buildings in Belfast would have the sounds from that particular area, the ground below each would be shaped like the ground where the building stood (if a river ran though nearby we would put in a water feature, if the building was on an incline we would create a raised platform) and in the centre of the room would be a rotating chair so one person could experience Belfast in one rotating movement. It was with all these ideas that we came up with a name for Project Two... ‘ A Sense of Belfast’.
