New Ideas from Lecture

Today within the class of FACS 2930, Marc showed a video of a person following a girl with a camera. The title of the film/clip is actually called "Rape", though it doesn't exactly mean what it means literally. However, phyiscally...we would literally think of it like the man is going to rape the girl both brutally and violently.

There are moments within the film where the girl starts to feel uncomfortable because of the camera. Comparing this to the 21st century there are all these surveillance around us that watches us, yet we're not feeling "uncomfortable". Therefore it is definitely questionable why the society now is able to understand or ignore such an act as safe as it is suppose to be for security.

From this, it gives me the idea of imitating someone changing the interface of the place or home where they are in. The environment around them except, in reality instead of virtually.

The framework of this idea could be someone flipping on the tv or just on the computer (having the camera focus on the computer screen itself) to show they want to customize something. Maybe it could be not related to the interaction of the computer but it could be where one imagines and establishes a change within a room? So like switch piece by piece to show the art of "home" or where ever the place I choose to be like...

Hopefully that's workable cause I can definitely "imagine" it happening...

On a side note, going back on the lecture of today...I'm watching a video where there's two screens. Both showing the same scene at times, one could change to show text, and one could show animation of the guide to "drop bombs" for technician. It's interesting how it works, there is also audio within the video (plus subtitles of course) which brings up the fact that I could totally change the audio where no one would understand but using fake subtitles so it seems logical

Going back on this one video Marc showed and explained earlier...the one about JenniCam is pretty interesting. Not that it's showing a girl and it could be similar to pornography of any sort but because it's like a documentary of a girl in her everyday life. Giving the audiences/fans different views (since she set up more than 1 camera) is like having surveillance cameras watching you and "you know it". Though, I'm not sure how I would be able to find videos online to do something similar...it could be worth a try.
