Week 9 - Market Participation - Team Reflection

Market of Impossible Things – Participant – Group 38 Kristen, Laya, Kate, George 


As a team we entered the market together but soon found a lot of stalls needed set numbers of people and therefore we split up and didn’t stick with one another.

 The first section of the market on floor C was more immersive and all the stalls flowed together as the themes were similar, and the decorations helped transform the space. We didn’t quite understand the ideas of different times throughout the market flow, but found a majority of the displays to be very interactive and drew on our participation.

It was nice that some stalls required a high level of participation and others not as much so they could appeal to different people. Many groups approached us and informed us, but some groups didn’t do this as much and we were left to ask what was required from us.

 In the second half of the market, when you enter the pit area, we spent more time waiting than participating. Although we arrived at the market at 10am we were still in the market place at 11.30am when stalls started packing up. The waiting around drew us out of the market experience as we were left feeling bored.

Overall we enjoyed the market but wish there was less people/crowds and more time.
