We felt that maybe it was as easy as constructing some sort of geodesic dome. The dome creates a ping pong ball-like structure while still having angular planes that would allow for the distortion of type.
The more we thought about it we felt that the dome was too literal and didn't provide enough of the multiple-plane effect that we wanted. The 'conversation', back-and-forward effect was also not strong enough in this situation.
—
Our new idea is to have large boards that would hang in a space and have the ping pong 'conversation' projected onto them. There would be a lot of boards and they would be hanging from different heights within a two-storey space so that participants could walk between them and really be immersed.
We see this pavilion fitting in with an exhibition like Lux and would work very well being situated in an alleyway.
