REFLECT ON THEMES IN AN AGE OF DIGITAL MEDIA
Personally I felt like one of the major themes from the past two projects was identity and how it is altered starting in a private space to a public space. It has been really rewarding lately while doing these projects this quarter because we are able to document them through the Internet. Our crits flow so much better and I feel like it is much more visual when we put our performances on our blog or youtube. Digital environments are extremely useful when trying to save one's work and when one wants to express a specific identity. From the alternate identity project I feel like it was very interesting changing a part of your identity for a significant amount of time and being able to experience other students' projects just by looking on their blogs. We have not completed the personal space project yet, however I believe that digital environments/media will help lend an outlet for documenting the invasion of personal space. The digital world is really giving the opportunity for people that are not able to witness certain pieces of artwork in person, but still be able to see them online.
