Idea For the Future....

So I signed up for a DeviantArt account years ago and I never ever used it. Recently I decided to start using it while I work on setting up a webpage and all that (something I kept meaning to do and never got around to doing). Anyway to keep this short, as I have a tendency to ramble on with ease... I've recently been talking to a few people on there about a few things. I've been using the journal feature on DA, to post observations about art/society/things of interest and the like not as an actual journal in the hopes of illiciting interesting conversations out of people. Mostly it hasn't worked unfortunately, people don't want to talk about odd observations (silly people don't they know what's good for them?)

Well recently I found someone who will actually comment somewhat on my little bits and pieces of things. It has been a lot of fun. The reason I put this in here is, I did a post after the Found event on how I found the audience more interesting to watch in this case. The audience became part of the art work which was an interesting thing to observe. I speculated on how you could work the audience into the art work make them part of the art work.

So that the art project is not so much about what is on display but on the reactions that illicit' from the audience. So perhaps you simply display a number of odd and random objects, or perhaps the objects are more considered then that. One of the suggestions that Vanilla-Vanilla, suggested was use of photographs of people holding random objects and then the work is photographs of people reacting to photographs. I also had the idea of perhaps using the digital cloth printer in the textiles studio--assuming it ever gets up and working--because I like the idea of taking one medium and turning it into another or working it in with another.

Anyway, future food for thought now back to the current project at hand. *disappears*
