This is the progression I have made in expanding on the projection surface.
I have decided to go a diffrent direction from the plans I had posted, I am not going to build a structure around it but develop a projection surface that will command the space, with a video directed at it in some way. There will be more surface area covered, it's in progress.






Invisible Cities - Calvino by adishachar

This is a few segments put together of me reading from Italo Calvino's book Invisible Cities, short essays about a fictional Marco Polo describing the cities he travels to.

I'm not really sure what I am planning to do with this format exactly but I thought of including some segments as an audio component to parts of the video....

consistently the false idea of chaos or accident imposed with structure.

Documentation from last week


















































After my crit last week I started thinking about surfaces that are walked on; this is more of a material study I'm not sure how I'm going to use these yet.


















Materials: dirt, glue
Dirt pieces cast as a walkway or stepping stones. I haven't decided where I want to place these yet, they're just pictured where they were made here. Maybe on a brick walkway or a cement sidewalk. I'm interested in how easily the dirt will break down when walked upon, eventually I think I want to find two different materials that will wear away at each other.

I wanted this to flow nicely so i made is shorter, its under 10 minutes.

This week I continued with the experiments leading to a step by step process in which potential paintings, spills/cleaning, and spaces of "domestic" control and containment are created. I filmed the entire process, and will be editing down the video next week, I am posting the final piece and stills from the footage.

Piece in progress. Again working with the idea of personally significant materials and memories.
