progress toward final projects










A night out in the streets of Siena —tests towards our final show. Dom animated tourists doing what tourists do. One was looking lost, map in hand, the other was climbing the steps of the Duomo. What worked nicely was the performance of the steps —Dom climbing pushing his animation ahead of him, timed out perfectly for the length of the stairs.








Alison also took in the tourists, having to swarming crowds projected onto herself and she make her way up a dark alley.









Erin projected video of her drawing a map of Siena against a lovely ruff pealing wall. The contours of her map following by happenstance the forms on the surface of the wall.





Emilee took on the campo projecting three simultaneous animations that moved from displays of public affection & touching to abstract forms that suggested more touching but also the figures on greek pottery.










Kelly photographed one of those "living statues" who comes alive for whatever money tourists drop in his can. Here he is now a ghost along the same street that he appears in the day time. A specter who could show up here or Berlin or San Fransisco or anywhere.
