For our final Artifact, Sophia made a hand to represent our connection to the people we were recording. She was the cameraman for our in person recordings of people around campus and Doral. We also brought some posters that survived the rain that were placed around Sophia’s job in downtown. I brought my projector and played a video of the video collage I made of about 40 videos we collected without my dad’s help. It was on loop with audio playing from the projector, with all the videos playing until the longest one ended before it looped again. We brought the table that we were going to set up at FIU before staff told us it counted as an event and we would get in trouble. These artifacts represent both the recording aspect (the hand) and the online aspect.

We measured the projector to create a sculpture for it for the presentation.

These are 200/500 posters we printed to hand draw.

We bought lots of tape!

We hairsprayed them to seal the pastels.

Our initial task list:

1. Fluxus-Type Posters

Our statement has to do with chaos helping to uninhibit creativity. We thought of printing a large amount of posters with Fluxus inspired instructions to jumpstart the creativity of people around the area/city. The four of us can only do so much alone, but if interested or bored people read the posters and follow any of the instructions in their way, we can spread the idea a lot more. By adding “catalysts” to some of the posters in the more private areas we can probably encourage more interactions. By “catalysts,” I mean things like chalk, flowers, colored water, washable paint, tape, and other reversible creative tools that might inspire people to interact with the posters. People also love free things, so being the person to use the chalk might be an incentive.

We want to aim for 2,000-3,000 posters. I know I can easily put up 500 posters a day as I’ve done this for concerts and bands before. If we could pick the busiest locations and stay nearby for a few days that would also be ideal, because we could take video proof of anyone doing these prompts. We would also put our tumblr or instagram on the posters so people could also film themselves when we otherwise wouldn’t be able to catch them doing these actions.

To be honest, I had no idea how to hook my projector in a portable way for shopping malls and other related locations. I also accidentally did these with the everyday monument 🤦🏻‍♀️ so these are not “real” images.

Here are some of the everyday monument ones since I did them:
