this was used at plot gallery in brixton. it was basically a dot that people were invited to place on the 'map' from where they came from. this could be used on a map of the park or something interactive along those lines.

possible material to use to stretch around the back of the structure, canvas type build.

structure and aesthetics

Thought I'd make a blog for us to put up ideas for park 10 as it may be easier to see and easier to get to than the shop. Anyway, here are some ideas I've had, please put your ideas up too!

How to make them: http://www.sciencetoymaker.org/periscope/index.html

A periscope is an instrument for observation from a concealed position. In its simplest form, it consists of a tube in each end of which are mirrors set parallel to each other at 45 degree angle.

This form of periscope, with the addition of two simple lenses, served for observation purposes in the trenches during World War I. Military personnel also use periscopes in some gun turrets and in armored vehicles.

More complex periscopes, using prisms instead of mirrors, and providing magnification, operate on submarines. The overall design of the classical submarine periscope is very simple: two telescopes pointed into each other. If the two telescopes have different individual magnification, the difference between them causes an overall magnification or reduction.
