Talking about the image project

Megan -
This one begins with the interior of buildings, focusing on the geometry and unnatural shape of them, and looks at a lot of exit signs, finally going outside. It kind of seems like an escape from the hard-lines and influence of humanity on the environment. When it moves to Allerton, there are man-made sculptures co-existing with the natural, organic shapes of the park. It seems very "pro-nature".

Nick -
I'm seeing movement from the city to the country. Maybe emphasizing the way campus is surrounded by farmland? The city stuff looked particularly "foreboding" (for lack of a better word) and under construction, so it looks like the pictures are favoring the natural aspect of the environment.

Raquel -
The image album is called "out with the old", and the pictures center around construction on campus. It looks like a collage type of collection, but beyond the common theme, I can't tell if the order makes a difference. I didn't see a positive or negative spin on it from the pictures, so it might only be about the way that the campus is always changing and being updated.

Rasheena -
It looks like there's a recurring sequence with something being introduced, Rasheena interacting with it, then the little girl doing something with it as well. I can't immediately see something that brings it all together, but I like how there is a distinction between the black and white and the color. That might mean something.
