Week 2

Week 2

Monday 7th and Thursday 10th March 2016

I started looking into the more intricate details of each place, such as; the activity, location, emotive quality and the three secondary communication points. I also visited each location on the day of the market to gain a feel for the sensory information which could be gained by a visit. I took my first round of photos at that point too so I could understand the dominant colour schemes within each event. 

The Night Market's sensory information is; smells and tastes of cooking food; the sounds of the smaller crowds and of foreign musics; the cold of the night air and the warmth of the crowds are contrasting feelings of touch; and all that can be seen is bright patches from the Chinese lanterns in the dark night. 

The Farmer's Market's sensory information is; smells and tastes of freshly picked vegetables and dirt; the sounds of the groggy morning crowds and of clinking coins; the sun and the fresh morning air sweeping across the market is the feeling aspect; and what can be seen is mostly green. 

The Underground Market's sensory information is; smells of perfume and sweet linen; the tastes consist of sweet and sugary treats; the sounds of the babies and fabrics rustling; the touch of silk and of painted canvas; and so many bright colours and dancing lights almost blind the viewer. 

I took the time to view each market from many different view points, some commonplace and others a bit more outside the box. All of this helped to find out how I wanted to come at the seemingly large project.
