I'm done with the project itself, and working on my statement.
The lamp is an excellent way to convey my project. I have two "sets" of pictures and sketches. The first set consists of famous architects' sketches and final buildings. The second set consists of pictures of buildings on campus, and my personal sketches. I found that two sheets of printer paper is the best combination for achieving my goal.
If all goes well, I will have an excellent presentation tomorrow. I will have to turn off the lights in the room for the full effect of the project.

Update
(I posted 2 posts that never appeared on my blog..I'm not sure what happened)
I made two major developments yesterday. Firstly, I found the sketches of a few other architects other than Gehry. I had previously been limiting myself to Gehry. I was able to match up some of those sketches with photographs.
My second development has to do with presentation. I have a lamp that I can attach both sketches and photographs to. I plan on doing this in a way that reveals the combination of the two images when the light is turned on. I have been experimenting with transparencies, tracing paper, and printer paper--as far as what combination works best to achieve this goal.
I have three really good examples of Gehry and Frank Lloyd Wright sketches that can be displayed. My final step is to do my own sketches of buildings on campus, which I am currently working on.

Update
I scanned in a bunch of Gehry's sketches, and I'm going to match those up with photographs. I also found a camera that I am able to use tomorrow to take pictures of UWM campus buildings.
