Final Project Proposal

I've settled on the idea of contextual space. How any given space feels and what it means is really determined by the context in which it sits. Using a perhaps over simplified analogy; a window is only a window, it means nothing until you know what is on the other side. Equally, what is on the other side means something different to everyone, the meadow outside could be open and warm for one person and foreign and cold to another.

My idea very much follows the same route as 99rooms, I want to constrain the viewer to a certain path. But at the same time, they should feel like they have a choice. I want to have a recurring image hidden inside a series of different images, such that the viewer will search through what is front of them (i think this adds depth to otherwise flat images) before proceeding. 

made a little flash slideshow but can't upload it....
will put them up as separate images or change it into .mov or something when i get home
