10.25

I recieved some very helpful comments after the review on Monday. The insight of the instructors was eye-opening and helped lead me in a new direction. Here is a review of some interesting points that were raised:

investigate how an impact effects different resistances (water vs. land vs. air)

moire's rebounding-->resistors producing rebounding
investigate wave form/wave distrubances
two simultaneous tsunami's?
resistances: dust settling; can these maps begin to have an identity/material quality that you can resist/ can different parts of the map react differently?
throw things at the "puddle that is the world"
ex: himalayas: concentrate waves? amplify? disperse?

who is spared?
what does an impact carry into the atmosphere?
multiple global scale events: palimpsest of various epicenters
many multiple scale events occuting simultaneously
evidence of flooding from some point, radiation from some point
scale of the ripple, thermonuclear...settlement
radiation tests from nuclear bombs

man made disasters; how they impact one another


There was a variety of comments and in continuing my mapping i hope to redirect my project to encorporate the bolded items.
