Our first day group project was called 'A Piece of Paper'. The brief - to get as many people to interact with a sheet of about A1 paper in about 3 hours.
Our group decided to cut the paper into a long chain and trap as many people as we could.
Initially we asked people to step inside the chain but most people were reluctant to do so which resulted in trapping large groups in the college canteen while eating their lunch and tourist groups outside the Tate Britain.
In total we trapped roughly 65 people.
I did enjoy this project... it was interesting to see how something we class so as insignificant as a piece of paper could attract so much attention and would make people willing to be involved.
It was also interesting bringing groups of people who didn't know each other at all together, forcing them to stand in a confined space. It was far easier to get people to join in if they all knew one another, as shown in the bottom two photos.
