Week 4 (Sky Christoph)

This first collection of pieces relates more to how we want to approach our concept, specifically with the ideas of layering and burying info among other info until it's all distorted into something we can't understand. This video has some interesting ways that that could be done, and is a great example of losing the body in lots more information.


This next video isn't thematically related to our issues regarding environmentalism, but the way that ideas were communicated with layers of projections and highlighting certain layers is related to what we are discussing. Included is a diagram explaining how it was set up. It won't let me embed the video, but I've linked it. The poem was written and performed by Thylias Moth, from the point of view of a young slave girl who has been taught to read and sees a specific page of a book in her master's room relating to moths. She uses the moth as a metaphor in a very interesting way.

Also, not a video, but related to rising sea levels and things (in this case, cities and populated areas) being buried, this article has some visualizations for what could happen to some areas around the world by 2050 if sea levels continue to rise.
