Assignment2 : Emotions and expressions

Contribuition to group project :

Group members :

Aziana Norazleen 

Nurliyana Minhat 

Zarith Ashikin 

Our group have doen research on the given topic and we have agreed on choosing 'Lust' as our main related topic besides emotions and expression . To express on 'Lust' we again agreed on making wall intearctive . Thus we name our project ' WALLUST' 

The reason we have choosen 'lust' is because we generally know that lust meant by a sexual or intense desire on something . Sometimes lust does sounds dark and evil and mysterious . So to channel that intense darkness feeling users are able to express in thru this wall interactive and turn that dark feeling into something artistic something beautiful in other words something that could brighten up . 

Since this is a group project my contribuition to the group is simply by doing some mindmaps , gantt chart and helping this group financially and physically in setting up . I have also contribute some ideas that we could use to relate to our topic and make it seem more ok . 

Assignment1 : Research Studies

Interactive Installation Designer:

Janet Cardiff 
http://www.cardiffmiller.com/

I personally find Janet Cardiff to be similar to my kind of working and taste . Her works are very simple to some and also can sometimes be whimsical like . Which is what i am . She tends to work on being curious with sounds and environment . For example her work on ' The Cupboard of Curiousness' experiments on each drawer of the cupboard having different sounds and we as humans are so likely to be curious wanting to know what will happen next .

My research printouts :

 

Installation art :


For the installation art i basically choose janet cardiff collaborator george miller . 
He has the same type of aura as janet does where he works on sounds and objects and experiment then working together .
One of his work 'Imbalance' works on gravity . A television screen hanging on the ceiling attached to a catapult and on the screen shows a human jumps up and down . The moment the human feet hits the ground the catapult releases and sends the television down interpreting the human feet itself .

Interactive Installation Art :
For the interactive installation art i choose the works of Jason Krugman , Stella Kim and Ben Chao . These three artist collaborate and work on a project that explore about the understanding of the male human body . Not just that , the wanted to do this to teach us to love ourselves for who we are and to appreciate mother nature . 
operates:
The model of the testicles functions when a person goes towards it and gives stimulus touch response to it . because the model is attached to a heat sensor it is able to detect and tracks touch and heat and when it 
does , the testicles will move up and down and whatnot . 


Personally i think this work teaches not only that but also let us women be more braver in exploring the world and creatures living among us . With us being curious but not being able to do anything isn't going to make us move , but if we step up and try and be brave than we know what will result to it .
