Static observation three

Things I hadn't seen:
Another small toy (that I now know is a polyhedra) near to the accordion.

Having heard the story I now recognised some of the objects that I had identified before as polyhedra or examples of tessellation.  The black and white square I noticed in the second observation was in fact a replica or what we were shown as part of the story.  Other objects that were not specifically polyhedra or tessellations became linked to the overall collection as they now had connections where previously they seemed random.  The puzzle was linked in terms of the possibility of creating tessellations.  The book 'King of infinite space' is now linked to the concept of space within the tessellations and the idea of 'blank space'.  By linking the objects together some seemed to be more 'random' than others - the tea cup, the accordion, the feather, the toy crocodile.  Although now I know they are all from the same office - the create a picture of that person's office.  So there are two connections or images created. One of a human who 'owns' all the objects and together they are part of that person. The other is more conceptual and indicates an interest.

As an observer I notice that I want to make connections between the different objects in order to make a story or find a strand of similarity or point of connection between them.  It was only with the introduction of the story that I wanted to do that though - before I was just interested in remembering all the different parts.  The context (the story) made a difference to how I orientated towards the objects and changed my perception.

I forgot to think about how they smell, hear or touch - I was too caught up in the context.
