Could you take your instructions from above and give them to people to interpret in a variety of media?
Are those instructions particularly relevant to your ideas about individual perception?
Is there / are there things from your artist statement (in the site class) that you can pull out and use as guides to create instructions that can grow in an orderly but organic way?

Thanks Eric. That’s an interesting take … breaking down the strands of so-called reality.

Hi Sarah — This is kind of out there, but your series of face shots made me think of the first experiments people are doing with 3D cameras (which, of late, means the Kinect): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QrnwoO1-8A

The 3D reconstructions leave a strange shadows / artifacts in places where the camera is capable of inferring depth but not color or content. I wonder how perception could be constructed / coerced through some combination / manipulation of this unusual type of negative space.

I didn’t know you were adopted.
What is there about adopting you could use? adopted/adapted?

Also I know we discussed Adrian Piper but I bring her up again.
And if you have not read Roselee Goldberg’s book on performance – there are tons of inspirations for you – that and esp feminist performance works (I saw a new Hannah Wilke monograph is out)
Also should look at Amy Khoshbin’s thesis work here – related not same
Mona Hatoum? Cindy Sherman’s later works?
Related also is David Rokeby’s project The Giver of Names.

Comment on [Thesis] Mood Board by Marina

Marina — Sun, 07 Nov 2010 19:06:09 +0000

I’ve had an interesting time looking at people’s small versions of their mood boards, because I get a really different idea of what’s going on at various scales. For instance, I still see the formal relationship between the Forsyth tables in the bottom right, and the check boxes and ethnic hybrids on the top left, but the texts REALLY stand out at this condensed scale.
I am really excited to see where you go with this – though I did have one thought/question – ‘belonging’ and ‘translation’ are such broad terms, i would love you to unpack them (maybe a brainstorm/map for each? with subsequent visual or movement lexicons?). While I see social science playing a role, and all the corporate/ HR tools for understanding type and understanding (sorry to fixate on that but your visual references FEEL of that world of imagery)., I really want you to unpack your own passion and innate understanding of what interests you about this.

I was the one earning that cent for the “All you can pay.” line. Now I’m doing a HIT worth 10 cents:
Ghostwriting a twitter line about your blog. Weird world.
