Market
of Impossible Things – Participant – Kristen Mabey
The Market of Impossible Things was very
interesting when interacting with the stalls, but I felt as though the slow
progression and long waits throughout the market really dragged it out and left
me as a participant feeling bored and sick of standing around.
I was drawn in and asked to participate by
the stallholders through their interesting interactive displays and cheerful
attitudes. I liked the play-dough stall where you created an idea that was on a
tag and left the creation there for other people to see and enjoy.
I feel like the overall market was very
interactive and relied on myself and other participants wanting to interact and
play their part in each stalls experience. One other stall I found particularly
interesting was the dream stall where you draw a dream then go and find it in a
black-light dreamy atmosphere, but here again I found this place to be dark,
cramped and confusing as you enter and exit through the same small area.
I found the overall experience in the end
to draw out too long and I was sick of waiting around, ending up skipping some
stalls and moving past crowds to leave. The positives though were the really
interesting stalls and interactive stalls creating a market that was enjoyable,
making participants participate in stalls.
