The GIANT workshop
By Sam Buxton and Roger Ibars
ECAL (Switzerland) May 2005
From Monday the 9th to Friday the 13th

This had to be a good day otherwise the project was heading for disaster… The structure had to take shape quickly and teams worked on different elements, the second leg, the torso, the shoulders, the arms, the animated hands and the head. The event was now taking shape and to counteract the nervousness coming from within and outside of the group, about a potential GIANT disaster, a betting ring was set up for people to put money on whether it would stand up, or come crashing down.(Text by Sam Buxton)
