Commencement of Ideation and Experimentation Phase

I was a bit nervous telling my supervisors at the meeting about my angle for my final project. I thought that wanting to get into certain archives would be too much and maybe a bit off track when I should be keeping to how my interface is going to look. That being said, it was well received and I was told that I should definitely try and get as much information about the angle I was going for as possible.

What I was trying to get access to in the Kings Hospital Private School archives was the accounts of a few boys who witnessed the Easter Rising from their rooms in Dublin City Centre. With this information I was then going to try and recreate what they saw onto the walls of a classroom so that the student feels like one of the boys at that time. 

I emailed The principal of the school who then put me onto the archivist of Kings Hospital. Andrew, which is the man who runs the archives, told me that he would be more than happy to show me around and to have a look at the documents. After telling him my schedule we both agreed on Tuesday morning.

Im looking forward to seeing what the documents have inside them to finally get the information I need for my project! Even if I don't get the information Im looking for, I think maybe a fictional approach would also be useful for this angle by still using factual information
