Identity Project Viewing, continued:
Well, today was even more impressive as far as the projects and their appeal. Sarah's piece was unexpected; the way of using a slide show to create a type of rudimentary stop animation was novel, at least to me. The choice of song was very strong. In a way it was a little disappointing to hear that she selected it after hearing it during commercial, but that doesn't take away it's impact while viewing. Nicole's work had a lot of interest in the social aspect of the work. I would have a hard time conceiving work with similar means of social interaction, mostly because I avoid group social interactions where things can be scrutinized. Perhaps it is for the reason that in Nicole's work she took and distorted everything she was given. It was fun but it has a dark side that is slightly subtle. Finally, Jennifer's was my favorite. Jennifer's and Nicole's work had many aspects in common. It was amazingly playful, due mostly to the means of construction. The playfulness contrasted nicely with the darker subject matter. It was a non-serious look at something that is serious but rarely taken seriously. Her method of almost ridiculous aesthetics made the unhumorous stand out.
