The box was an interesting thematic element because it not only worked as a persuasive and poetic artifact, but also as a model for your concept. So even though you didn't end up putting cubes on laniards, you certainly gave the participants an interesting novelty item they will more likely rather keep than discard. Kind of like a poster but more personal.
I do think it would be a good thing to let some of those rich elements from the box seep into the disk packaging that is received after round 1.
The dicut image as a part of your "round type" identity is a nice solution to long road of possibilities you were working on.
Overall it seems to have gone through a long transformative process from your initial group experiments.
The forced interaction- a nice idea, but there is bound to be a way to give us a general idea of how your hypothetical situation could work out (without artist and designer fights). If you think of the attendants as animals fitting into there occupational niche, the artists and designers of your interaction need each other in order to complete there objective. You could probably regulate ratio of designers to artists too.
Instead of using the words "forced interaction" you could maybe make it sound like a consensual agreement to work together.
Wow! You girls really pumped it out. I was really amazed at how well you worked together, and how well your ideas/concepts molded each others thoughts and ideas to come with the amazing things that you did.
I think though, that if I didn't already know what the logo said, I wouldn't understand it. I just feel that legibility might have been pushed too far on it. I think its beautiful, and awesome to look at, but needs more. I know its something that you wrestled with time and time again but I think it needs more work.
I think the challenge is a great idea, but maybe not do it as a volunteer basis. Break people into teams, and give out the other people's e-mails or contact info to get the first round started. I like the idea of it and that's the reason that I would probably most likely want to go to the conference.
I'm really glad that you girls put as much work as you did into it, just push it further. It's great! It really shows progress and you really worked well together to fuse what you both liked. Maybe the sculptural thing was lost in a way, more flat on multiple surfaces, but other than that really great. Way to go!
I really enjoyed the color palette that you ladies chose, because it gave me a good sense of energy and interest towards the conference.
The idea behind the colored dots was interesting to me, however I think you might have a problem if you labeled a person as "fine artist". The term is quite broad, and some fine artists might not like being "labeled". I know we also discussed the fact that sculptors themselves are considered fine artists, so the grouping does need to be re-figured.
I absolutely love the idea behind the cube, and it totally backs up the logotype. It is something tangible that I probably will not forget. It explains, in 3-dimensional form, the entire conference theme. It is extremely persuasive to me.
I feel that the logotype is too illegible, and I wish I wouldn't have seen it before today. I would make sure that people can read it, so maybe testing it on complete strangers just to make sure they automatically can read it. That would be good just in case it isn't legible.
The layout of the website seems nice so far, but I would like to see a bit more micro vs. macro reads. I know that the logotype is larger, but since it only frames the letter forms it doesn't take up enough space to contrast the smaller body type.
Overall, the website and design of the entire conference artifacts seem very clean and refreshing. This is probably something that I would be attracted too. Very nice work! I enjoyed the presentation!

I'll write more if more comes to mind.
