It is my end of year exhibition tomorrow.
My final piece is mind-meltingly cool. To the point I don’t think people will understand it and might burn me as a witch or something.
It is basically a sound piece. I’ve rendered images of my hair into three sounds to represent how it looks at different times of the dai. I.e. As I’ve just woke up, after I’ve styled it and after work when it’s all *droop*.
I took pictures of myself at these times of the day for three days then drew line drawings of the outside line of my hair then made them into sounds using a program called “Coagula”
If you’re familiar with Aphex Twin you will know he put a picture of himself on the end of his Windowlicker cd. Well, you might not know that, you might think that was an urban myth but its not.
anyway Coagula isn’t the program he used because the one he used is mac only, but it’s a simpler version that’s a whore to use. But I done it anyway.
The sounds are like a mix of spaceships and white noise and when turned up load are horrific to hear. Its wonderful :D
The sounds emanate from the belly of life-sized silhouettes of myself drawn out in green wire and are housed in a black, grimly-lit room. They had to give me my own room because of the nature of the noises.
Anyway, it’s the best piece of work on the foundation course by far and I 100% win. I might not get a high mark because I’ve no done much artist research because I didn’t use any artists because I have a BRAIN. I’m not arsed though, I’m totally proud of myself and therefore WIN.
