  1. Good Tyler, you completed the technical exercise! I am not saying Lil Wayne adds to the piece necessarily, but I do think it could become its own piece. Identity dissolution of stars, malleable identity creation, etc...

  2. Sheilah,

    I definitely agree that it is not very effective in adding to the piece. While completely the process I realized that creating a piece using the technique and refining the technique that I worked on would be very interesting especially using lil wayne as a subject. I think that I could use the technique with live video of wayne to create a piece that deals with celebrity as this untouchable or god like entity. I think it would be especially interesting to change wayne's identity or distort his identity because he recently released an ep entitle " I am not a human being.' Also I think that comparing or creating wayne as a holy or spiritual figure could be interesting given his background with drugs and violence.

Great work Nick. I love the camera's following nature. Your work kept me thinking "how did he do that?!". You really capture a cold feeling, and rather mechanical, to the piece. Probably experimenting with monitors would of served good as well which, as you know, Nauman used in the Public/ Private space installation. R.T
