ideas for the 3g show in the spring

i'd like to start throwing out some ideas here. i think the blog is ideal for this, so that other group members who can't make it to the meetings can participate.

one idea that has been on my mind is the natural passage of time. brian herrington, one of the music professors, held a creative workshop for composers this summer, and he was asking why time in music doesn't reflect time in the natural world. pieces are composed in metrical beats: 4/4, 3/4, etc. but if you sit in a room, natural time acts differently. your heart beat, sporadic sounds of birds outside the window, rain drops, a shadow moving across the room, the ascent and descent of winds, the cycles of night and day, etc. i think this concept would challenge all of us. personally, i am not used to dealing with time at all in my work, typically. i don't have any ideas at all regarding what we would do; it's just a concept.

showcase

at the meeting on tuesday, we all showed samples of our work. knowing that there are students who could not make it to the meeting, we decided to post samples on the blog and invite everyone to do so. you can post links to other sites if that works best for you. here are photos of some of my work. the second and third pieces turned sideways and i couldn't correct them. i have done lots of other pieces for class assignments and such, but this is the stuff i care about. also, here is a link to a site where i published my zines: http://www.epistlemology.blogspot.com/ and a link to a site where i published an interactive public project: http://www.theoandsophiaproject.blogspot.com/.
