My wireless wasn't working at my house last night. So. This is "daily practice" entry #2.
Two projects have come to mind for my Film 222 final project video and my Web Design portfolio entry.
1.) For my film piece, I want to base it off of Peter Lunenfeld's "Solitude Enhancement Machines" chapter in his book USER and a poem that I read a long time ago in Cometbus. There will be a man and a woman in an open, dark room and they will both be on laptops. The camera will watch the clock ticking on the wall then focus on the man. The two are in a relationship, but they do not talk, only type on the keyboard. They manage their files on "feelings" for each other. For example, he asks the girl to marry him via instant messenger and she will navigate to her "feelings" folder, use "excited" and accept. They're sitting right next to each other. The screens fades to black. And so it goes on. At the very end, it finishes with the couple breaking up and the guy simply dragging all his files on her to the trash. This sounds confusing to explain, but it's merely a rough outline.
2.) My friend Sam took an awesome picture down by the lakefront (top image). I want to use that picture for the homepage, then create hotspots around the picture with pop-up text explaining some sort of "first time" or "last time" experience in my life. For example, a hot spot in the sky would pop up "I star gazed with my best friends the last night before I went to college," or something like that. I just thought of that idea yesterday.
