The Exam

Lists, lists and more lists.

Hello there, this is just a quick update to let you know about a project I recently worked on with another lovely girl Sarah Boulton. Sarah and I realised we are slightly neurotic when it comes to list making and we decided to incorporate this into our one day project. We decided to have an 'exam' in our allocated space. The exam started at 9.15am, no mobiles were allowed and there were punishments for those who were late. The question consisted of genres of lsits that the others in the class 'answered'. The lists varied from your obvious 'to do' lists to 'what would you do with...' etc. It was really interesting to see how stressed some people were getting being put on the spot to decide their 'favourite sounds/smells/tastes'. Loved it!

After the gruelling 15minutes we had a look at the 'answer sheets' which were strangely intimate. Many of the answers gave away more than we guessed was intended. We learnt a lot about the other students from some really simple things like 'If you had £50,000' what would you do? We then made a list of our favourite answers, which I will write at the end. We let everyone back in to have a sneaky peek at the 'answers'....was all good fun!
