Project 3 Definitions

Liminal Space: Comes from the word "Threshold". "These thresholds of waiting and not knowing our "next" are everywhere in life and they are inevitable." - http://inaliminalspace.com/about/what

This idea of life and how it is disrupted in our daily activities and how it is hard to control can be seen in my project through the use of disruptive clips. Its hard to control many things in art, especially in videography. It is interesting to see the many takes you need to do when shooting footage because of the disruptiveness your surroundings and models and actors can take on. I feel as though Liminal Space refers not only to the change in medias we were to focus on in the final product of this assignment, but also in the creation of the project itself.

Immersive: providing information or stimulation for a number of senses, not only sight and sound - http://www.thefreedictionary.com/immersive

I think the idea of using many different sense is interested in the video sense, because our first inclination is sight and sound. At the movie theatre we experience the sight of the film, as well as the sound effects that goes with it, and that's our natural idea towards film. Using multiple sense such as touch, taste and smell as difficult in such a medium, and it is interested to study and examine how they can be used. In my project, I wanted to use texture, a play on touch to create a new dimension that takes the sense one step further.
