Review Outcome

On wednesday i had a review in which i was able to speak to 2 very helpful people (jen and tom). As i was having problems with my ideas, the review was vital to the progression of my work. I decided to show them this blog and work down through my ideas. After i presented they looked through the notes and picked apart every idea.

The ides i presented were said to be very formal, and focused on the technical side. This was no good as there needed to be some personality in my work and also some core meaning.

What is the point in created a exif data visulisation when after its not doing anything. The end result is a image and thats it. This is not what they wanted to hear. The only idea they really picked up on was the burst shot idea, which would explored memory as a core concept. The proplem was that they were still alittle unsure about why i chose to use a burst shot technique. I explaned it was to help show memory and then to later pull out and mess around with frames.

I was told to watch - Minority Report (for a concept from another idea - 'idenity on the internet)
- La Jetée (a french movie made up from just stills)

From here i was very greatful that i had a path to then follow and explore around. I would like to look at memory and in perticular human memory (an organic methord in psycology).
From this i can start to create some more ideas with a personal meaning rather than just looking at the techonologies of the ideas.
