Meeting four, week five

After gathering the information together from the groups questionnaire we could begin piecing together any information that could possibly connect one or more of the group members,

So we found out that Aly was born in Malaysia and that i came out on Malaysian Airlines in 2000. Also Aly and my birthday was on the same day, July the 24th.

Then we discovered that Chad's Dad's birthday was on the 24th of July as well, so we were beginning to find some big connections with each other.

Alys favourite destination was Barcelona, and Barcelona happens to be a favourite song which was sung by a band by the name of Queen.
As we continued on with this discussion and reading over the questions we became more and more connected than we thought.

It seemed as though we had some connection with the band Queen and the Royal Queen in England, i had met the Queen on a pheasant shoot, then things stared to get a bit out of hand, TJ had shot a pheasant, Chad owned a pheasant as a pet and Janick had seen a pheasant at a zoo. So i myself thought that this was getting us no way near the goal of a team profile.

Our tutor Peter sat down with us and asked us questions more to do with our destinations and explained about what if we went along the lines of a code for the group profile, such as numerology.


So our mission for our next meeting was to find and print our favourite destination and gather together the longitude, latitude for that country,town, city, or even a rural area.      

Meeting Three, Week four

For this meeting we realized we weren't really heading anywhere with just ideas for the final piece, so we thought of a series of questions to ask the whole group. Sarah wrote down the Questions whilst the rest of the group came up with some complex questions.

Meeting two

Meeting Two, Week Three

What we found out about each other:

Aly was born in Malaysia and loves football and is learning spanish. She grew up with christian beliefs.

Chad is the son of a dairy farmer and went to Francis Douglas Memorial Collage. His grandfather comes from Kent in the UK.

Sarah was the dark horse of the group and it was hard to find anything about her.

Janick has a passion fro music and is in a band, when he was younger his mum use to by ribbons in his hair.

TJ is from the Waikato region and has just recently shifted to Taranaki. He loves to go pig hunting and enjoys spending time in the bush.


Once we had established a ground to go from we then looked at how we could express ourselves as a group in some way shape or form to do with our hobbies and interests.

We disgust How we could use different areas of visual art such as, audio, video, abstract or performance. Smells even came to the table, with someone suggesting we take the smells from things that we enjoy doing like speedway fro Janick, or cow muck and milk smells for Chad, for Aly it was to be the smell of Spanish cooking and for Sarah it was the smell of electronics in the hardrive of a computer as she was a bit of a computer whizz.
