Today I went and spoke to Gray about where our project is heading after week 5 interim. 

I expressed my concern about continuing the project in Orientation week and he explained that O-week is not a great vehicle for our assignment. This is because students at O-week are focused on what Massey want them to know. 

Which is where everything is and how to use stream and how to address essay questions...

Going back to the essence of this project it was about getting to know the city you are in. Coming into 4th year we realise that we still don't know many places in Wellington.

Grays advice was to ditch O-week and focus more on making a game or something fun for people to participate in that takes them around Wellington. Thinking like an Amazing race, or a fun run. 

Combine orienteering and make it FUN and CRAZY! Make it social! 

People aren’t just cooking anymore -- they’re cooking, texting, talking on the phone, watching YouTube and uploading photos of the awesome meal they just made. Designer Paolo Cardini questions the efficiency of our multitasking world and makes the case for -- gasp -- "monotasking."
