final progress

Tis a collage of Batman things. One side good, the other evil. About halfway done. Just a few more people to add, and some layers to make it visually better.

Re-Imaging Muybridge

For my .gif I first added the jet pack guy (nothing to do here meme), im not at all sure why... but i decided just him flying across the screen over the horse wasnt enough, so i added in Anikin Skywalker, the DeLorean time machine from back to the future (originally was going to be the Mach 5 from Speed Racer). For some reason I still wasnt satisfied with it so i added the Avenged Sevenfold Death Bat and had it pop up randomly. I really just wanted this to be as random as possible.

Assignment three.

I decided to make a map of songs I wrote in high school. These are mostly from my junior and senior year, and there are 39 of them all layered over one another. It is not exactly supposed to convey anything, it could be looked at as showing just how chaotic the type of music that I write can be, and that is shown because you can not really tell what the lyrics say, or what word goes in what song. I have a very disorganized writing process.

Assignment Three Proposal

For my digital mapping piece I am going to create an image generated from scanning all the songs I wrote in high school. Then I will drop the opacity on all of them so they can be seen through each other and layer them on top one another. Avoiding copyrights because they will be all my own images. Main artist that inspired me was Jason Salavon.

Visual Complexity

This one was interesting to me because I used to do a lot of running and I would love to see a map of everywhere I had run, I think it would be interesting to look back at where I have ran in cross country with all the races I was in all over Ohio.

made out of boredom :p

Social Critique!

This is my social critique piece. Basically what it is about is how people will spend hundreds of dollars at a big name clothing place (hollister is the first I could think of), and in the end they basically start to look like a walking billboard. When you really think about it, it doesn't really make sense to pay that much money so you can advertise a company. Used three images (the girl, the billboard, and the hollister pic) and put them over each other, then added the text. Images used under fair use agreement.
