Project Four Proposal

For my blog project, I was thinking of making a blog that discusses the common, trivial and embarrassing moments that happen in life and addresses the self-consciousness of a person. I'll make a list of them and 2-3 times a week, I'll perform one of them in a public space. I'll ask someone to document it through pictures and the post them on the blog. The thing is, I don't know if I should make these incidents realistic and make people feel uncomfortable and embarrassed for me, or if I should parade around doing something embarrassing clearly acknowledging it. Some examples of trivial things that seem to bother people: Umbrellas flipping inside-out during windy weather. A dab of food smeared on the face. Something stuck in the teeth. Toilet paper trailing from the shoe. Etc.

I. I think I would want the projector out of the way instead of in the middle of the room. Maybe projecting from the ceiling, or something. Other than that, I think the installation was a good size for the number of people that was viewing it. I would also want the room to be completely black or white without any of the clutter.

II. I like the idea of squeezing in some couches or comfortable armchairs for the audience to sit in to get the feeling of sitting back, lounging around and watching TV -- that sort of thing. Otherwise, I thought the placement of the audience was fine.

III. I think the use of sound in our project was effective, but I realized that they all have a similar and consistent rhythm. I would consider re-recording with more variation in speed in the voices.
