Week 6 - Evaluating Core Parameters

Defining the Parameters
After re-evaluating the core concepts from the Folie two parameters were decided upon as the framework for further research. As mentioned in the past blog, scale will continue to be one of the parameters for the project. View is the other parameter which will be incorporated in project 2. Before the parameters are explored metaphorically, definitions of them will enable a foundation to work upon. 


Scale

verb: Climb up or over (something high and steep) 


View
noun: The ability to see something or to be seen fro a particular place.
verb: To look at or inspect something.
