How does our memory work?

I started researching and trying to understand what neuroscience is all about and how my concept, synapses is linked to it. Apparently, after researching, synapses have got to do with everything that we do. Synapses are the ones that connect our brain cells to another or cells to nerves to brain so that we are able to feel pain when we hit into something. It is like power sockets for our electronic gadgets. Once we charged our 3 pin plug into it, it would charge it. Synapses are the same. Below is an example of how our memory works and breaks down information for us to understand or remember. Behind this process there are many elements besides the synapses that help to piece and connect them all together, which would be shared in the next post.

Consultation - 26.02.14

With the comments that I have received last week, I tried and worked on my programme and concept before today's consultation. In the beginning of the day, we were all asked to state our issue, site, concept & design strategy in 1 minute so as to not only know what each other are doing but to also ensure myself that I know what I am doing.

all in 1 minute!

Areas to work on
 

User Experience Graph

With the programme and layout of the spaces, I tried mapping the journey of the visitors to my space from the source of where they heard the exhibition from to the movement in the interiors to the post experience.

Zoning 1: Plans & Sections - 3 Options

With the programme in mind, I tried to zone out my spaces and how it would look like in sections.
I divided the memories according to the different decades, each exhibition linking up to the core in the middle of the site.
