Knowing that we have 7 meetings and this is number 4 is a bit stressful; over the half of the FMP? It feels as if I just began. Wendy tells me that I am doing right on schedule. Have to believe that.
I was told me to make mock-ups for exhibition play with light, projections, images, vinyl records installations, 4x5” prints, sound (and the way to play) and color blue and white.
What do I want: evoking feelings like entering a journey or experience. Feelings of wonder and threatening.
Contextualize climate change registrated in cloud formations
Write more in detail about climate change and cloud formations (Nephology: is the study of clouds and cloud formation).
People to look up: Elizabeth Oglivie, Kati Paterson, Benedict Drew, James Bridle, Alan Warburton, Hito Steyerl and Janine Antoni.
Talking about white and blue I taught about the world famous Delfs blue porcelain and created a kind of vases which I made another CRJ post about.
Benedict Drew
Tries to describe the cray world we live in. Entering an exhibition he wants us to make a journey and step out of that world for a short time. Entering a fictive space. Expended video; how the image can escape out of the screen end into the space.
James Bridle
Seamless transitions is a visualisation, using digital technics, of three spaces of immigration judgement, detention and deportation in the UK withoiut having seen them himself. The places are not open for the public and he uses other ways to get an idea of the "unseen", unphotographable places and show them. Because CGI is used you can navigate trough the space. Makes me wonder how accurate the spaces are visualised; I will probable never know.
Elizabeth Oglivie
has a project bodies of water with video installations and real water. The art does not seek to promote politics but to let the viewer consider its worth; the visual and physical effect. She combines architecture, science, art and music.
Alan Warburton
Art Impact Analysis, 2015. HD Computer Generated Animation made using Autodesk Maya.
The work of 3 sculptors: Richard Serra, Henry Moore and Anthony Caro was used to impact the transitions. The result has, in my experience, a kind of human appearance. Very interesting way to make the morphs.
Hito Steyerl
starting point how to be unseen by surveillance camera's, not visible, disappearing. Starting point "how not to be seen" by Monty Python. Hito made a kind of instruction film on how not to be seen although not entirely practical. That is what I like about the work; some of the things are absurt and impossible, at the moment; but who knows? She wants to create interaction for the audience; an experience.
Penelope Umbrico
I was looking at the work of Umbrico before, and wrote about it in my CRJ. This time I looked at sreenwalks where she again tells the way she works, noting new to Strat with. What was good was the way she uses Prezi. A kind of fightable with all the work she does. It gives a very clear overview. A great way to have everything under control.
Janine Antoni
Transformed the act of dreaming into a sculptural process. She slept with an electroencephalograph machine recorded her eye movement. During the day she would weave shreds of her nightgown in the pattern of her REM. The pattern looks like sound waves.
