Today was the first day of the
Christo assignment. We toured the campus looking at potential spots for our project.
Some of the ideas we had included:
- Wrapping lampposts leading to cafeteria (from library)
- Curtain cover in undercover area outside library
- Covering flagpole on top of library building
- A runner of fabric up the library stairs
- Wrapping over benches/sleeping area in library
- Covering a cement wall in or outside of birch
- Ramming a curtain across birch windows
The ideas we liked best were covering the sleeping space in the library, and wrapping the lamp posts leading to the cafeteria. We all liked the idea of creating a space that could be entered, but realized that it did not really fit in with Christo's aesthetic, so after speaking with our instructor we decided to wrap the lamp posts, creating a running line from the library to the Birch Building.
