site for memory

treating the conditions of your terrain

using one of your memory models and half of your two-part shoe model, construct a topography that deals with conditions of depression and relief. site your memory model above the half model with some point of overlap, and place the half model into the plaster to gain variation within the slab. overlap, overhang, and intersections are acceptable and desired. this will be your new site from which to construct and situate your next model.

use potter plaster #1.
in a 12"x24" frame over 1/4" plywood (or similar rigid material), cast roughly 2-3/4" thick plaster slab.
as slab is curing imbed your half of the two part shoe model at least 2" into the plaster.
the memory model should not exceed 1" into the plaster site.

*photo document your memory models before sacrificing them to the plaster site

the site is priority for wednesday (10.6)
