RETHINKING THE IDEA: This is how I would think a computer would breathe if we gave it life.

    This piece is very jarring (in a good way). The silence makes the listener hyper aware of their breath, but it becomes harder to breathe normally as you hear the unsteady rhythm of the piece. I really like your idea that this is how a computer would breathe. I hadn't thought of that when I first heard it, but it adds an interesting element to the sound.

My First Gallery

This whole project was very exciting. My book turned out really well, but I wish my thesis had been more clear, because on the surface it looks like I had several different topics; I was critiquing capitalism, making my photos look almost like pages in a magazine. Within that critique, I wanted to highlight how much value has been lost for so-called sacred ideas or people, like Confucius, and how we as a society are so focused on the past (like the drum or the Latest News container) yet we can't wait for the newest technology. I kind of wanted to communicate all of that, so I hope it was effective and everyone kind of understood what I was trying to get at.  The print project was also very interesting, but less enjoyable and satisfactory than the book. My two prints, "Follow the Rules" and "$12.95 of Right" worked well together, and continued the critique of capitalism.  This was my first time being part of a gallery opening, and I have to say it was pret...

greeting card event

Image
My project, "greeting card event", was just a joy to plan, create, and stage. I set out to explore the relationship that people have with greeting cards and their own image. As I stated in my proposal, when people consume greeting cards, the anonymous subjects tend to take on a universal quality which allows people to connect to them. When I made my friends the subjects of the greeting cards, I had hoped to illicit a response that would be similar to greeting cards, but also change the way in which they consumed the cards. What actually happened had a very different energy which I personally associate more with Christmas. The act of gathering for gift giving (sometimes with cards) is a constructed event with certain unspoken rules or conventions that were very much present during the greeting card event. My process:  I made the greeting cards on Zazzle, an easy-to-use platform that I think most people use to make personalized wedding invitations or other stuff of that...

Jason Yi in Time and Space

Jason Yi's artwork very often takes on the context of time and space. One of the things that really stood out to me during his talk was his background in architecture, which shapes the way he looks at a space.  Location can dictate what we see and change our perception of what we see. The structure and design of a room tells us how to use it. “Terraform” for me embodies these two statements. The lines of the statues follow a certain pattern, even when I don’t necessarily understand why they are present. When standing in a certain spot of the room, all the cones point to a certain light, which is directed at the three pieces on the wall. These small relationships transform a space and the things within it into a cohesive and beautiful environment. "Familiar" In terms of his other projects, “Familiar” represented for me the nature of our existence, which is made up of moments that stand out to us, and define us. They form a pattern in spa...
