Step 1: Choosing The Audio

As we ending a week of the theory of design we received a new brief that caused both some issues and openings of opportunities for me.

Brief
• Conceive and design a packaging system for audio content distribution. 
• Manufacture at least 5 identical versions of the system. 
The design should articulate core values / concepts related to the audio, and 
use materials and technologies that are appropiate to packaging design.
This is project is to be completed individually however you should seek input from your peers to help 
develop and refine you work.

As our Aural terrains installation had no recordings because of privacy issues it opened up a whole load of possibilities to do some design for other groups projects. This is an opportunity to put myself directly in the position of a contract designer. I am effectively working on another persons idea for them. 

I discussed with many of the other groups but eventually settled on the "Behind Closed Doors" soundscape as it was inspired by the idea of conspiracies and cover of of knowledge that should be known by everybody. I have to mention the minds behind this part of the project were Chris, Ryan, Jared, Lee and Ben and the soundscape comes from their hard work.
