MAT Thesis meeting #2.

Jamy and I talked about things that didn't make sense to me (though I don't think they were supposed to) but which theoretically sounded really cool.

He said my little emotive animations would lend themselves really well to some kind of time-based, installation, interactive, performance piece... umm.

We discussed the idea of having sound as an essential part of it. Like in a movie, without the sound half of what is going on is missed. No dialogue, no background/surrounding audio cues, etc. With my short gestures, music/noise could be used to aid the understanding of what is happening. (Theoretically specific sounds = specific emotions)

Perhaps Becky could help me with this. But after talking to Becky she REFUSES to work in Midi format, which Jamy mentioned a lot as though it were imperative.

These are the last two prints for my show. I'm probably not going to include the two I'm currently working on because they aren't exactly relevant. I am experimenting with this whole black border dealy. I don't know if I should include the original white border of the paper if I have the black... Now I just have to actually measure everything. All measurements so far have been basically made up. Although I'm guessing to the best of my ability.

Photos of the rest of my ceramics are in! David East says I should reshoot the other two I already posted so that they match in sexiness. I agree, but that sucks.

I'm working on two more prints and a wire sculpture, but I probably won't photograph them any time soon. I will also post images of the other prints I recently took photos of. I probably will not repost images but I have been reworking the white balances of my prints so that they actually kind of match.

I also officially titled all of my ceramics and prints because thesis forced me to. So the titles of pieces I've already posted have probably changed, but I'm not going to repost them.
