i turned this in today. didn't get to do all the neato trickiess i wanted to, so i'm gonna keep werkin on it. but here's dif for now.

we picked out sounds without hearing them first, then came up with abstract interpertations of the sounds. i had native americans on the brain, obviously.

PROJECT 02 Frenetic Synaesthetic
Sound and Vision.

Description//
Sound by its nature is an abstract and temporal manifestation. Even though we recognize certain sounds and their connection to specific objects or actions, there is a wide range of possible interrpetation. Likewise, we make associations with particular notes or sounds and their combination and sequencing, whether they are composed or incidental as in the case of the outdoor environment.
Using a segment of provided audio, write a visual description of the piece. You will use your notes and description to create a visual response using color, text, symbols, pattern and simple geometric forms. The objective is to understand how to control pacing and sequencing by employing sound as the starting point. Be mindful of synchronous and asynchronous opportunities, scale, contrast, subtlety and dynamism. The visual translation of even a literal interpretation should result in an abstract or indirect visual result. Avoid literal or typical visual translations.

word.

Project 01 Solipsistic Type
I mean what I say and say what I mean.

Description//
Using only the letterforms of the word itself, convey the essence
or meaning of your assaigned word. The meaning of the word can be
expressed by varying the spacing, scale, position and other variables.
You are limited to the tranformation properties, 3D layers and the
camera for your manipulations (no filters, expressions or behaviors
allowed). You are to use black or white type on a background of

The Goops

by Gillette Burgess

The Goops they lick their fingers
And the Goops they lick their knives:
They spill their froth on the tablecloth
Oh, they lead disgusting lives!
The Goops they talk while eating,
And loud and fast they chew;
And that is why I'm glad that I
Am not a Goop, are you?

sara says i am most definitely a goop.

i had an epiphany last night.

while watching "hogan knows best" last evening, i found myself desperately trying to figure out why his voice sounded so familiar. then it hit me.

braveheart lion's voice from care bears. i like to daydream of hulk in the studios doing voice overs for braveheart and acting out dialog about being cuddly.
