I made a spot for the computer and I attached a black blanket with velcro to cover the back. I also made sure the stand won’t fall forward.

Building and mounting the button mount
Vasil made and painted the button mount and we all worked on attaching it.

Testing and bug fixing
The title sums it up. There’s been a lot of testing and uncovering problems with it. Even tho I’m not a programmer, I did what I could to help Izabella figuring out a problem where the program loaded the wrong sounds.

One last VO
We had to change the voice over for the introduction of the installation. So Thom and I changed the lines a bit and re-recorded it.
Finishing and publishing the promo.
I animated the remaining shot when the 2D planets were done and worked on the transitions between the shots. After checking with the others I uploaded it to the Facebook page and assigned the Call to Action button to it.
Sanding the top to level it out
I sanded the installation on the top to make it leveled so the ting would fit properly on it.
Improving the beamer stand
Testing of beamer with mirror and making a mount
I brought my mirror from home so that we could extend the distance of the beamer to the dome. That worked well but the next step is to construct a mount for it. We did run into a problem where the beamer stretched the image so that the planet looks like an egg.

Working on the sounds for the planets
The DAW I’m using to sample all the sounds is Ableton Live. We ended up having the installation be in the key of D minor.
Voice over recording and editing
Here Thom and I are recording the VO for the intro and outro of the installation itself.
