IDAT 203 – Phase 2
The initial concept, “public art”, after returning from Ripcurl I was inspired with ideas surrounding a social theme, questioning what brings people together. Why do people group together? My nan always said “birds of the same feather flock together” .
The initial concept invited user to build profiles of a group of people in at a gig. The idea was to challenge the users perception of people.
*negative film manipulated through photoshop This idea appeared to be too static, as the creation process doesn’t involve public participation. This concept involves user to type in text via an input window of body parts and insert a comment to represent or interpret an emotion or characteristic. For example: a girl with funky hair (static) image in a manic dance pose. Insert on head area could be e.g. loving the current band on stage, but getting crushed by the people around me! Arms (in a high wave position) or leg parts: very tired but I am still going. All the data will be stored under each image
(taking the above image for example, there are 6 people in this image)
