Deconstruction Video

For my deconstruction video I sought to compare and contrast "noise". I wanted to play with the idea of how the audience felt when viewing and hearing a mix of a little and then a lot of visual and auditory noise. In the drastic shift of the video I wanted to elicit intense feelings of either surprise, annoyance, or any other unexpected reaction. This was an interesting project to explore a sense of reception to both visuals and audio sounds that were at first calming and then chaotic. In my exploration of how we subconsciously react and respond to stimuli I was pleased with the result of the in class screening. It seemed that my video had the effect that I was so interested to see.

    The sudden sound did scare the s**t out of me like I'm sure it did to those in our class, but I definitely did enjoy the first part which had your filming; great camera work.

    Great Work! I, like Adam, enjoyed your variety of shots combined with the soft and loud noise dynamic you focused on.

Xerox Project 10/30

    For this project we had to scan parts of ourselves and put together a 2D/3D piece of art inspired by an art movement. The first obstacle for me was developing an idea, the second was getting over the fact that I had to scan my face in front of other students. However, as I actually went and started scanning myself my idea became more clear.     I have always found surrealist art to be quite intriguing because of its dreamlike quality and focus on the human psyche. The art of the Surrealist movement focused on unleashing and expressing the unconscious mind. Therefore, I found my inspiration in this psychological approach.      Through my piece I sought to convey the effect and power of our unconscious and conscious minds. The variety of gestures both positive and negative are directed and projected at my "unconscious" face. This is to show how sometimes we can be our own worst enemy, but at the same we can lift ourselves up.

Performance Art

Part 1         Of the many performance artists I've learned about I found Ulay, Chris Burden, and Pyotr Pavlensky to be the most inspiring and intriguing. They all advocate for using personal expression and action to express the inner "need" of the artist. In an interview Ulay states that when doing performance art one has to be doing the piece partially for oneself in addition to the audience. While the artist is always seeking to make a statement or spread a message, it is critical to be acting on individual terms of self-expression. Additionally Chris Burden's "Shoot" art piece in which he is shot in the arm for the sake of art speaks volumes to this idea. This is an example of using the body as the canvas by which to make a statement. The fact that he had a friend of his willingly aim a gun at him and fire shows the mental boundaries that are pushed through performance art. Pyotr Pavlensky takes utilizing the body as the medium a bit further w
