Barbara Kruger

A. In this piece of art I see the rules, the government that teaches us, the way they think that children’s minds are inferior to that of the adults in the idea we have no say. The truth comes out in the photo stating that we may speak our minds but the roles in command will do nothing but laugh at the thought.

B. The message I tried to portray in this picture is that the children being taught do not get a say. It is true they are not as smart but that does not mean they can be ignored completely. This accounts for any age of student, anywhere.

C. I dislike this piece of art because I feel that the art part is hard to see. We should have taken the pictures our selves and then added the words. Also I think the words should have just come from the mind, instead of off a website masking some creativity. I know I could have come up with a better fraise if I just came up with it in my head.

Barbara Kruger Assignment

A) In this photo I see a pair of leather dress shoes, very snazzy and look as if owned by a wealthy man perhaps a lawyer or government official or maybe even a man with class and style. They are a pair with out feet in them and they rest on a shaggy like carpet of some sort.

B) The message being said in this picture to me would be about materialism and how possessions are more important to people than other things. We live in a consumer driven society where the things we buy get old in a few days. The words in the photo are a statement that despite the obsession with possessions these things become both worthless and pointless after death and in the grave.

C) I do enjoy some of Barbara Kruger’s to an extent. I do not like the way she puts her words together by looking through articles. I feel that it is more creative and significant when the statement is completely made up from your own mind. Some of her photo’s do not interest me along with her writing, despite this there are a few I do enjoy, so over all id say that she was not my favourite but not the worst.

Scuba Serlon

1. What I like best?
The thing I like best about my game is the theme I used as there were many ways to make my level my own: octpi attack, eels can can swim out of caves, befriend sharks. I stuck to a more Finding Nemo/ biolumenescent coral reef theme simply because I wanted mine to be a colourful contrast to the barren moon surface in the original lander game.

2. What could be improverd?
I would have made it have a little more action, if I had more time I'd insert a shark that goes across the screen and you'd have to avoid it otherwise you would die. I'd also put in an eel that pops out of a whole right beside the landing pad.

3. How is this game an improvement upon the original?
This game is both more interesting and challenging then the original "Moon Lander". There are more objects to avoid and the mission is more interesting because you have to retreve treasure.

Moonlander Idea

I had many idea's for the remaking of the moonlander game. The one I chose to use would be my scuba diving expedition idea. The idea was to create a scuba diver and have him "look for treasure" under the sea. when the diver spotted the sunken treasure, he would proceed to slowly lower himself beside it being sure not to descend at too fast of a rate to avoid decompression sickness otherwise known as the bends. If you reach the treasure at an easy pase then you land beside it and move onto the next level.

1. The things i like most about all three overall would have to be the focus on the lense of the camera in the photo. The lense makes you think about the picture itself alot and how it looks as if it were you being photographed.

Hidden Self Reflection

1. This image shows my alter ego by specifying the things people might have not known about me. I have pictures of me when I’m classy and when I party. The pictures I chose and the way I put them together tell a story about who I am as a person and what I think about. I don’t like to tell people about my nerdy qualities but I love astronomy and geology so I put a picture of the earth and mountains in the back. Also not a lot of people know that I love to scuba dive so I put a picture of the sea with all the colourful fish in it. I also love warm places so for my back round I chose to put a picture I took in Mexico of the beach and palm trees. 


2. The aspect of my image I find the most successful is probably my eating a car picture because it shows how comical I can be and what kind of sense of humour I have. I feel that this part of my image really gets peoples attention and makes them look and ask questions about it. It is creative and colourful; the car itself really makes you stare.


3. The aspect of my image I find least successful would be the plane flying through the sky. It doesn’t really look how I planed it, I wanted it to be crazier and stand out. It was suppose to look like its in the middle of a battle but I didn’t have time to add mist or fog. It was the only picture that I found that was nice and big enough to crop. I wanted to show my love for history but it just looks like I like planes, which I do but not what I was going for.  


4. If I had a chance to redo this project there isn’t too much I would change. I would definitely make a better plane, with fog and historic colouring by making it black and white or sepia. Also I would do a better job cropping the pictures. Some of the pictures I have are rough edged and not very smooth so it looks too much like it’s been cut out and pasted. I would also add some more pictures of the sea, maybe a scuba diver so it could further get my message about scuba diving. I also wouldn’t mind getting some more colour because I feel that not a lot of people know of my love for neon colours.

My hidden self

my hidden self

Five interesting things that people dont know about me would be that i like jazz, and love astrsonomy and talking about the univers, i like thinking about what els is out there, i colect random items, and i love board sports.

Three things people would say about my personality would be insane, hilarious, always willing to try new things.

If there was anything i would change or show people it would probably be nothing cus im pretty open.

I hope to be amazingly happy and be able to share it with someone.
