In-Progress Inflation Test

We will inflate all of our inflatables thus far to test them and make assessments for next steps.

Questions to answer in class:

  • About your Designs:
    1. What adjustments do you need to make on your design?
    2. What can you simplify?
    3. Do you need to change your design in order to complete it before April 29?
  • Practicalities:
    1. How many fans do you need?
    2. Do you need sandbags? If so, how many?
    3. Do you need rope to hang your inflatable? If so, how many feet of rope?
    4. What other items do you need for the installation of your inflatable?

Homework

The following are due by the beginning of class, Friday, 4/22:

  • Work on final project and have it ready for a whole class rehearsal at Studio B in WQED. This means be ready with anything you need for set-up. For example: if your inflatable hangs, have the appropriate interface on your inflatable so that it can connect to rope to be hung from.
