Lloyds Corner- Movement Mapping
Map 1. 12.00-12.30pm
Map 2. 12.30pm-1.30pm
Map 3. 1.30-2.00pm
The following maps show the movement of people on the day of the event during each of the four events: Crazy paving, Street Art, Game Zone and Urban Oasis. The red lines mark where people walked and the blue crosses where poeple stood. The objects we placed into space are also drawn.

Tasks Feedback: LP
Lloyds Corner event 24/01/09
LP feedback 11/02/09
Making session and preparation
· Great fun, a good way to know the members of the group better and most of the things worked to bring life and colour to the Lloyds corner.
· Would have been useful to make a quick assessment on how appropriate what we were making was for the site (Lloyds Corner). This might include microclimate factor, size of objects…etc.
· The need for more preparation was demonstrated with the last scene: ‘the urban Oasis’. A more thorough preparation could have avoided missing the sunflower s and the flower pots (the boys were very disappointed about this) and make the trees exercise more efficient. For example a sandwich board on the ‘people tree’ inviting people to position them where they would have like to see a tree planted.
· Check other events in the area; at the end it did clash with the Chinese New Year event but could have been integrated if we would have known.
The event
· Again great fun even in the cold
· Lots of interesting chat with people and quite an impact (several people mentioned they saw us and wanted to know more about it)
· Great photos to publicise the action group and the project
· More people involved might have helped to catch more people passing by?
Feedback from conversation with people on site and people who saw us while driving and personal observations:
· Combination of ideas rather than only one theme. E.g. play/art and vegetation; vegetation and paving…etc.
· Something visible from driving cars and buses as they are also users of the space
· People with children interacted much more as the children naturally/spontaneously engaged with the activities (dancing/drawings) and dragged their parents along. Could be part of the brief, think about the children first the parents will follow.
· The lady who played hop scotch (sorry if it is the wrong spelling) clearly enjoyed doing something from her youth; maybe something related to the history of the place linked with the lamp post might be appropriate? (Julia mentioned a photograph of Queen Victoria on London Road, it could be displayed on the chemist window)
· It is clearly a space people pass by on their way somewhere rather than a destination. A new intervention should not impede people’s movement.
· There was some respect shown, trying to avoid to walk on the children drawings on the pavement , which is very encouraging, especially if some temporary/more fragile structures/interventions are proposed.
