some inspiration

these are really beautiful

more ideas

Well I went to the salvage yard out on Maury St.....scary times!! I called before hand to see if I needed cash to buy some metal, and the guy did not sem to know what I was talking about, told me to come on down and look around. When I got there I received scary looks and did not find anything so hi-tailed it outa there! Then I went to Lowes and picked up some more rebar, have some in the shed, and a stell plate. Much easier going there!

Some more problems:
I am too sensitive
There is no where to park my car
i am  too short

I have been playing around with some sketches but am still pretty lost.

making a tool

I have been playing around with several ideas on making a tool that solves a "problem."
Some problems that need fixin:
Not enough time in the day
Being too cold
Remembering things
Money

being far from my family

I really liked the video on Oliver Laric, I had no idea that all of the Disney movies are so similar....very creepy. It is so interesting how people repeat themselves so often and may be completely unawares.
I want my cast project to be a symbol for how repeating memories change over time, and how people will "clean them up" and start to forget all of the not so great things about a person. For me this is my grandma, while she was alive we constantly fought and agrivated each other. Now that she has been gone for a while I tend to only think of her in positive ways. I think everyone tends to do that, it just makes remembering easier.

progress on the cast

Response to “The Shape of Time”

The idea in which I connected the most with was his idea of the manuscript draft by the replicated mass. The individuals completing the puzzle are having different experiences, are in different circumstances and cannot ever possibly make the puzzle exactly the same as the original.

I also could relate to his interpretation that prime objects are very much like prime numbers in that they cannot be broken down, the viewer does not see the parts of the whole, they do not know the how’s or the whys of the prime object.

The evolution of a prime object over time was also another relatable concept, nothing in history ever stays the same even if the maker is trying to exactly replicate something else.

Rainer Fetting

this is my power point on Fetting, we also discussed other artists such as: Andrew Gormley, Kiki Smith, Paul McCarthey, Mark Kostabi, Keith Haring, Jeff Koons, Ryan Trecartin, Jun Kaneko and Jason de Claires Taylor. I enjoyed de Claires Taylor's work the best, it was very enchanting and seemed almost magical, even though some may think it is cliche. My least favrite was McCarthey, I did not enjoy his work, alothough I can respect him.
