Project 3 Proposal

For this project, I will be working with Joey,

 I will be designing visuals, and reactive video to music, while joey will be creating music and setting up a MIDI controller for the viewers to interact with.

   The project is going to be a live DJ show, with interactive music decided by the viewers. They will walk up and play the notes on the keyboard so that it will be fully decided by the viewer. The footage will react with the audio and create a video based on what they choose. We will have a variety of music to go along with variety of video effects.

There will be a background behind the DJ booth with a crowd acting like its in a club/venue.
The entire performance should last less then 5 minutes.

Materials:

MIDI Controller

Laptops

DJ Console

XLR Wires

Power Cords

RCA Wires

Projector(s)

Erik Duty: Video and setup

Joel Duty:Music and setup

Timeframe:

by the 2nd of november, we will have the test performance ready

by the 8th will be setup and ready for presentation.

Project 2 Artist Statement

What is this thing? Why does is seem to radiate? Where did it come from?
The theme i want to follow for the semester is sci-fi, first with mythology in the first project and now
with aliens in the second. The mysterious is very appealing to me, i would like to channel it in all that i do.

The object is supposed to have magically appeared and the video is meant to be like found footage. What is this mysterious object, why does it radiate energy, are all things i want to convey in this.

Artist Research 2

My research is on Yayoi Kusama's Love is Calling at the TMA. I went to see this last weekend, and it was absolutely incredible. The wait to get in was pretty long, over an hour, and while waiting you can watch a video of an interview with her as well as the wall having lots of information about her and her art style, as well as why she picks Polkadots.
You are only allowed to experience the room over 2 minutes, and afterwards they air out the room for a minute. Ten people can be in it at one time, and during the 2 minutes you hear a poem being spoken by Yayoi in japanese.
