Whilst looking into different ways to display the photographs that we have taken, I put them all together into what looked like a gallery collection of miniature photos so that you could clearly see the individual people within the over all display but not their faces clearly within each image. I liked the repetition that this showed as it looked effective when each of the photos was placed together to show that it was part of something on a larger scale. I also liked the way that it had the sense of all the individual elements coming together to create something that when merged you couldn't identify the individual parts however I feel that we could be more creative with our presentation.
The second visusalisation that I looked in to was putting all the photos together on a very small scale and then deleting section of them to spell out the title of our piece 'crafted repetition'. This worked well to a certain extent showing a clear message, however as a group we have come up with the title 'Crafted conformity, merged identity' to display on our final presentation on the wall giving a hint towards what our project is about but leaving enough to the imagination so that people can ultimately decide for themselves what the project means to them. Therefore I would need to change this visualisation, however I think it would be nice for there to be a certain element of textiles within the display to make it more textual and unique and not purely a photography project.

These are interesting ideas which you have considered. I like your visualisations, and the way they are regimented when they are all lined up. I also think that it is interesting when the images spell a word, as they are so small that you can't completely make them out. They all merge which is like the idea of everyone wearing a uniform, and us all having one identity. I agree that it would be nice to have some textiles element to the project.
