Brainstorming Hangout

After class on Sunday, we thought of changing the shape of our SoundWall and making it a cube. We were thinking of displaying the last four songs played on the street (pedestrians' smart phones) on the four sides of the cube and presenting the most popular songs on the top. We had a few different ideas based on this big idea, and we tried to bridge over our differences in a virtual meeting. 



Participated: Ran, Noam, Sharon, Omri, Itamar

These are the points we agreed on:

1. Display on the cube's side faces will include the 4 songs last played in the street (1 on each face), containing the playing song's beat (sound wave visualization of some sort),
its album artwork, and its name.

2. The cube's efficient size and height must be verified by physical testing- Sharon & Itamar

3. Determined by the test's results, we will decide where to display which information- current tendency is displaying the song information on side faces,
the collage on the top face. 

4. Pushing songs will be done automatically via GPS+app.

5. Pulling songs will be done by QR code.

6. Upper collage's display direction is an unresolved issue (current display idea is directional, size changing tiles that represent the songs/artists), temporary solutions
for the storyboard are (a) choosing a direction and deciding for the users where to look from/ (b) Rotating display.
