Time - Based Movie

Case Study 3)

I think the material used in 'Oh so criminal' should be legal. If they were legal then big companies like Universal wouldn't be able to persecute normal civilians for using their brands in fiary benign circumstances.

Case Study 2)

Yes! I think these two chairs are the same. Shame on Universal for thinking they could get away with this!

Case Study 1)

It is certainly difficult to tell whether the similarites between 'He's so fine' and 'My Sweet Lord' are enough to sue George Harrison. The melodies, Harmonies, chordal structure, tempo and vocal sturcture are all very similar. On the other hand, the vocal work in both songs in reminisent of gospel, which was widely used in pop misic at the time. I would sue geroge harrison for writing this song. Even if he didn't breach copyright in writing 'My Sweet Lord' he should have been producing more origonal work anyway.

Blue Oyster Show - Review

From the moment I walked into the Blue Oyster to see the Otago Polytechnic exhibition I felt assaulted. Upon entereing the dark empty alley, which serves as an entrace to the Blue Oyster, my ears were attacked with the sound of heavy artillery. I locked my bike and gingerly stepped through the open doorway into the display space. My immediate reaction was intense claustrophobia. The slopeing walls and ceiling of the first alcove confused my sense of space and made the exhibition cramped. The static piles of corrigated cardboard strewn over the floor again reminded me of a war zone. The television screens, hidden amongst these piels depicted scenes of burning wreckage, which added light and movement to the exhibits. The sound of guns and bombs was louder. The overall affect was alarming but slightly theatrical, like a 'happening' from the 1960's, were sculpture and theatre were combined.

On further investigation, my inital sensations of unease did not go away. The next exhibit, an extreame close-up of an apparently disturbed young woman on an enormouse projector screen, was equally surreal. By this point I was feeling very uncomfortable (I was the only person there) I spent a few more minutes examing the two exhibits before leaving.

What I find most perplexig about this exhibition was the use of space. Was it ment to have such a claustrophibic, disorientating layout? The day after my visit I was discussing the visit with a class mate and was ashamed to hear I had compleatly missed several exhibits! The first two were so powerful I lost my way a could not find any more!

Categories

I could make categories sperating my homework exercises from anything else I loaded onto my blog (e.g. a diary or photos of myself.)

This would be useful becasue then my lecturers and tutors will not have to wade through loads of personal information before they get to my assignments!

Comment on window:scene article "Prada's Blossom Fails to Bloom"

I had to read this article three times to grasp its full meaning! I couldn't believe someone would bother writing an opinion piece on an advertisement. I don't really care whether it's been influenced by, "videogames, online worlds and new media", this has still been designed to sell stuff. I think it is a shame hightly skilled artists have been harnessed to market a product as shallow as prada.

Does anyone else see a problem with this?

What I Think About Computers

I am ambivalent when it comes to computers. On one hand I'm doing quite well this tutorial, on the other hand I'd really like to go to sleep, on the third hand it's quite groovy to learn this kina stuff. I'm keen to learn more, you are really good at explianing stuff.
