Trading Cards in Harvard Square

0. Note your walk's title and blue card tags somewhere you can retrieve later.
1. Trade cards with a classmate
2. Perform the new set of cards
3. Add three additional cards to the walk and number these cards accordingly (you may use decimals, e.g. card 6.5 would come after card 6, but before card 7)
4. Perform the new set of cards (10 total cards)
5. Photograph each of the ten cards.
6. Upload to Flickr with the username mixedrealitycity (password to be emailed) and tag each photo taken (including those taken in the first exercise), adhering to the tagging rubric given below:

Photographs of the individual cards should be organized into a single set on Flickr. The set should have the name given by the original author. Each photograph should also be tagged with the card's number (e.g. "6.5"). Photographs of blue cards should also be tagged with the tag written on the card. Finally tag each blue card with the word 'blue'.

Photographs taken during the performance of the walk should be tagged but not organized into a set. Please tag each photograph with both the tag written on the blue prompt card and the title of the sensory walk on which it was taken.

In the description of all photographs, write your name. In the description of the sets write both your name and the name of the person who created the original set of cards.
