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.
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....
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.
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.
