Hey, Everyone! Come See How Good I Look!

- I came out on the twenty-fifth day of the eleventh month, the year was 1987. Some say I'm reckless--I like to shoot things... and google discontinued products. I listen to museic 24/7, marching to the beats in my tape deck. I drop coins for my closet, but swipe heavily for my lip stain. I am deeply and importantly talented.

Because She Said So
Pipilotti Rist:
This work included a lot of different imagery, and sounds brought together in an interactive site. There were contour line drawing, color blocking, airy vocals, and different forms of collaging. Rist's site also gave the viewer the opportunity to decide which order they would like to view the work; left or right, move the mouse this way or that way. Viewing this site was far from a bore, the fact that I was in control of a lot of things was a plus; it actually nade me take a closer look as to what was really happening before me.
Mattew Barney:
This work included a series of cycles that branched off into photographs, sculpture, and descriptions. All of Barney's work was very staged, and posed, giving the viewer the chance to explore larger than life imagery. I enjoyed Barney's work, it was extremly planned out, and explained to a t. Each cycle started with a description of what the viewer was about to see, then there was characters, and then sculpture to back it up. It was interesting to follow the map that Barney seemed to have laid out for me.
Bill Viola:
Viola's work is very personal, all of the imagery that I viewed made me feel as if I was experiencing someone's pain, or enlightenment; someone's downfall, or someone's uprising. A lot of the images were of people on fire, or people throwing water on their face, or having water poured over them; the death of one thing maybe, and the rebirth of another. I felt something from Viola's work, it seemed extremly real, like emotion in a photograph.

A large black square with a little white square centered at the top: Naptime In My Ears:Mad Fun
Aki Air was so unexpected. I don't think I have ever been to a site of that style; the display was adorable. I enjoyed my stay there, each little animation was super fun, and held my attention for several seconds even though it was the same event repeating itself indefinitely. The site as very geometrically centered. The animation consisted of ink line drawings mixed with a bouncy rythm, from there the success was stamped.
The Shiver site made me feel like I had spent my time wisely. There were candles in the grass, little light reflectors, nice scenic things in the background; it was like a painting. IF I had to choose ONE word to describe this site it would be suttle. There was very little going on, but I enjoyed it for some reason.
Mayne! This was pretty much the best place ever. There were really only three ways to really go, but they never seemed to get old. The interactive nature of It Will Never Be The Same provided something fun for the eyes and hands to do. Anyone whose anyone will enjoy it. Go Ahead, Click Here, You Won't Regret It.

Dear Time
A minute?
Why that’s a whole lifetime.
There are things that are
born, live, and die in a minute.
But don't ask me what dear
cause I couldn't tell you.
-Edie Sedgwick
