14 July - Installation Presentation (Alpha Test)

Today, the team  had a class presentation for the lecturers. I am responsible to record the score and feedback  of the installation that have given based on the marks of other groups and peers.

From the presentation, these are the marks given by the lecturers:
Shanim - 2/5
Jam - 3/5
Jazmi - 4/5
Jia Wern - 3/5

These are some issues that we need to focus on:
1) They are lagging problems when 10 animations are put together resolume arena.
2) Limit the number of the jars
3) The sound should involve something mythical.
4) The "stress" word is too general to explain our installation's intention.

After that, we decided to change the visual concept and try to edit the sound again. But, the team will still remain with the number of the jars as the team  feel that 6 jars have less impact for the  installation.
