    What are your 2 favorite concepts, and least 2 favorite concepts, why?

    Firstly the fake twitter feeds game is one of my least favorites because, personally, I don’t visualize it well. It seems to be a hollow idea. Secondly, the motion interactive skateboard because while I’m not able to find an existing example online I feel as if the idea is simple and obvious.

    My two favorite ideas are the wireless Assassin game and possibly the weather balloon pollutants tracker. These ideas both present explorative problems opportunities to learn, both artistically and technically and, personally, seem to be extremely enjoyable.
