Speaking of quotes

Another Chaos quote.

"I accept chaos. I am not sure whether it accepts me. I know some people are terrified of the bomb. But then some people are terrified to be seen carrying a modern screen magazine. Experience teaches us that silence terrifies people the most."


Bob Dylan

Photobombing

Well after writing my ambition to do a photography project, using my images from my 12 month photo diary. I've set up all the technical side of it; see http://photobombing.com. Now I just need to do it, do it.

Academia so far, seems ok

Well, I handed in my journal. I finished my projects and exhibition piece, we did the show. All good, good fun and productive in work terms too.

I did a poor presentation for my assessment of this year, but hopefully I'll make up in other areas. But possibly I'll be let down in other areas. Anyway, year 1 - it all could be worse.

Part of my exhibition was a display of about 950 photographs, making up a photo diary of the last 12 months of my life. During the process of taking them down (much more fun than sticking them up, 4 bits of blue tack per photo is 950 * 4 little pieces of blue tack) I was thinking about what to do with the photos.

I've decided that I will start another photography project, I'm going to attach my photos to public places with blue tack. Each one will be tagged with a sticker, that links to a website detailing the project. I'm also going to try and photograph the situations in which I put the prints and also try and photograph whoever takes the photo from its situation. I think I'll call it photobombing.

Also - must make an Eastenders style soap, but in a documentary style. Perfect.

Twiimendous

Discovered the potential power of a Wii remote and I've decided to use it for my University show, it will form the "button" part of my audio installation. In order to record a snippet of audio, you will have to make a gesture with the remote - assuming my programming skills are up to the task.
