__October 5th (Proposal Research)__ Music
 * 1) an art of sound in time that expresses ideas and emotions in significant forms through the elements of rhythem, melody, harmony and colour
 * 2) the tones or sounds employed, occuring in a straight line (melody) or multiple lines (harmony) and sounded or to be sounded by one or more voices or instruments or both
 * 3) musical works or compositions for singing or playing
 * 4) the written or printed score of a muscial composition
 * 5) such score collectively
 * 6) any sweet, pleasing or harmonious sounds or sound : the music of wave

__October 26th (Budget)__ refer to "budget" page

__November 7th (Wall Research)__

__Materials thus far:__ -compared prices for tubs! Home Depot - Mirolin - Madison 60 in 1-pc Shower Stall with seat (makes accessiblity for a variety of people into the shower) **$1039.50** Rona - MAXX Canada **$1149.00** I will look other places, the tub doesnt have to be amazing..(it shoudl probably be new though... for sanitation purposes..)

-Periodic Table Shower Curtain... XD - [|www.thegeekchic.ca/shop/periodic_table_shower_curtain.html] **$35.99** floor tiles....any home hardware store

touch screen - acer makes really good touch screens...

__Why do people sing in the shower?__ Many people sing in the bathroom because it acts as an echo chamber especially with tiles installed. The multiple reflections from walls enriches the sound of one's voice. Small dimensions and hard surfaces of a typical bathroom produce various kinds ofstanding waves, reverberation and echos, giving the voice "fullness and depth". []

standing waves - the periodic disturbance in a medium resulting from the combination of two waves of equal frequency and intensity travelling in opposite directions. There are generally two kinds of displacement, and the maximum value of the amplitude of one of these occurs at the same points as the minimum value of the amplitude of the other. Thus in the case of electromagnetic radiation the amplitude of the oscillations of the electric field has its greatest value at the points at which the magnetic oscillation is zero, and vice versa

reverberation-
 * 1) a reechoed sound.
 * 2) the fact of being reverberated or reflected.
 * 3) something that is reverberated: //Reverberations from the explosion were felt within a six-mile radius. //
 * 4) an act or instance of reverberating.
 * 5)  // Physics // . the persistence of a sound after its source has stopped, caused by multiple reflection of the sound within a closed space.
 * 6) the act or process of subjecting something to reflected heat, as in a reverberatory furnace.

echos-
 * 1) a repetition of sound produced by the reflection of sound waves from a wall, mountain, or other obstructing surface.
 * 2) a sound heard again near its source after being reflected.

Purpose of the wall: -for people to learn the science behind the music (how and why we sound better when we sing in the shower compared to when we sing.. well not in the shower)

__Sketches (Christmas Break)__ 4-6 sketches / design board showing different angles of the presentation
