Class and Project Notes

This week in class we watched Art21 and had speaker, Jennifer Wallace come in. Some of the videos we watched were about Alfredo Jaar and Krzystos Wodiczko. Jaar did 21 projects with Rwanda. He wanted to do something that no one has ever really spoken about. Wodiczko's projects were about killings in St. Louis. He did a projection on Bunker Hill where the speaker is seen on the monument. They talked about loved ones who died. He also did a Hiroshima project where the hands of the speaker are projected on the Atomic Bomb Dome. All of the artist were very moving.

Our project is going really well. We are recording Laura's dad about his pornography addiction and overcoming it. We are also getting peoples responses throughout campus. We are asking how they feel about pornography and if they think it affects the person doing it and their family. We are meeting Monday at 11:30 to start putting our video together. I think it's going to come out really well.
