Discuss your reaction to "The Carp and the Seagull" by Evan Boehm. This site uses WebGL and will need to be viewed in Chrome:

Why do you think the artist has created work that relies on the viewer in order to move the narrative forward? In what way is this same inclination reflected in his video installation, "Looking At a Horse"? http://www.peelyoureyes.com/laah

Among other possible topics, think about ideas related to collaboration vs. appropriation.

Which site has more in common with "My Boyfriend Came Back from the War" and which has more in common with "I Know Where Your Cat Lives"? Why?

Matt's Project 1 Idea

                          For project one I want to focus on the issue of the world with gas and powering motorized vehicles. One major problem we worry about is pollution and burning gas so my idea would be eliminating the use of gas in any motorized vehicle. Not only cutting out gasoline to help pollution I also want to create a vehicle that may still drive on land but is capable of flying in the air. Not only would this be cool to be able to fly in the air just after driving as a normal land vehicle, but it is also cool because the land car would be able to escape any natural disaster such as tsunamis, earthquakes, etc. These vehicles will be solar powered as well as air powered. while in the air the car will generate energy to power the vehicle when it is on land but while in the air the vehicle will be able to fly using the natural resource of actual air. Since these new vehicles will be mass produced there will be an organized way of flying like shown in the picture below to keep from accidents all the time. Along with being powered by air and the sun this vehicle will also have the option to maneuver under water driven by the resource of water. It only uses it and shoots it back out actually causing the water to always be circulating which will actually help algae build ups decrease. This vehicle will be beneficial to the future as well as this project.

                                          

                                      

Project One Ideas

I want to focus my project on genetic modification and even genetic engineering in food, animals, and possibly even humans. The main question I want to pose is if we will take genetic modification too far. My plan is to either make some extreme human-animal hybrids and dress them up as soldiers, or to show animals growing out of plants in a lab. This is to represent an extreme side of genetic modification and engineering. 

Project 1 ideas

For my project i wanted to discuss the growing amount that technology is taking away from time spent in nature.  I've always loved the use of hyperbole both for humor and to prove a point, so for my project I plan to photoshop together a forest background, and then put an animal on a couch either watching T.V. or on a laptop.

Project One Idea

I want to create a vision of the urban living environment of the future, a scene of crowded streets, with large windows so we may see the inhabitants. In the spirit of Fahrenheit 451, there will be large screens and everyone will be exceedingly interested in them. I want these screens to display news of the future: globalization, social reform, resource control, etc. The implications being a centered world government, an advancement and dependence on technology, but I also wants hints of environmental reform: rooftop gardens, rationed food. One of the biggest themes will be an idea of control or "stability", a dictatorship necessary for a large population and limited resources.

Here are some of my beginning reference images, all will be edited almost beyond recognition.

Project One

Trash world - as the human population grows so does our waste. Already, we are ruining thousands of acres of land with our garbage. Living environments are being destroyed and the damage may be irreversible. The movie Wall-E  shows an extreme case of what could happen if we don't find a way to dispose of our waste better, and though extreme is not a completely unrealistic idea. This issue is something that has always bothered me, because it effects so many thing in the biosphere and it is completely man made. 

 

Project #1 Idea

My idea for this project revolves around the topic of global warming, more specifically I want to discuss the lack of coverage on this issue in the media. News and social outlets have an effect of the public opinion on climate change and therefore if the media shows lack of concern the general public pushes the issue to the wayside. The scientific data collected has been significantly understated and is need of being pushed to the front of peoples minds.

Project 1

For my project, I'd like to focus on consumer tracking and the future of marketing. My emphasis will be on how advertisers are pushing consumerism for their own gains and whether they have the consumers best interests in mind. They don't. 

Project 1 Ideas

For this project I want to focus on something big in our country right now and that's Social Justice. I want to cover topics such as racism, class-ism, poverty, and the police. I will cover these topics and try to convey them in a way that conveys their importance to not only our country but to the rest of the world.

Project One Ideas

For this project, I want to focus on the downsides of modern technological and societal "improvements."  I plan to encompass a number of issues under this theme, including privacy, desensitization, materialism, etc., and how they are related to the progress we have made over the last several decades.
