ART 104 T #1-Week2

In the class we did brainstorming and word association related exercises. At first we used the word apple as a starting point to keep associating words and those who couldn’t think of any were considered out of the competition. Afterwards the teacher introduced us to Visual Thesasurus, a website that helps people to make associations. I used this as a basis to create my initial final work-related mind map.

In addition we have put together a character with practical blocks. The character I put together is called T. It has a simple construction and is huge and therefore genderless. It looks like an irregular staircase of flesh and it is difficult to see it in its entirety at first glance. It must ask the person who sees it a question. It asks, “Where do you think I begin and where do you think I end?” Those whose answers displease it it will eat, making pieces of flesh similar to itself before spitting them out. It uses the spat out pieces of flesh when it wants to change its body. The intelligence of this being seems to be very low, so it holds little logical dissatisfaction with most of the answers. t will grow bigger and bigger before disappearing at some point.
