Day 9 - We spent the day flying our kites in Whitworth park. Although there was barely enough wind to get them off the ground, we still managed to keep a couple of them in the air for a relatively good amount of time.

Day 8 - After we finished stitching the kite, we quickly tested it outside Chatham before making any changes to increase it's stability. Once the design had been finalised we set the string with glue, ready to fly on Thursday.

Day 7 - After designing our kite, based on Wittgenstein's theory of language, we began making the wooden frame and stitching on the plastic to allow the kite to fly. Our kite used see through plastic sheeting to mimic the element of camouflage implemented in our hut design.

Days 3 and 4 - Time spent building our physical models. Laser cut pieces have been sprayed, ready for use in our reconstructions. New material has also been added in places, such as reflective perspex, to effectively produce our design.
