Performance Art
I found this really interesting to do, and if i was to do it again I would perhaps target more runners. Also I would try to get the courage to do it on campus where I feel it might have been less ignored!

Colossal
I've been on colossal for a few hours now, it's definitely one of the best time wasters! and in searching performance i found this video http://www.thisiscolossal.com/2013/06/the-time-you-have-in-jelly-beans/
this is my favourite i've seen so far. I'm not completely sure why, probably just because its a really interesting way to display a really powerful message. There's something sort of eery about seeing your life in beans!

I just watched this interview about performance art with Marina Abramovic, i couldnt make it load using youtube, so heres the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_CMzjLGGaM
I found it very interesting. She talks about how she did not realize herself to be a performance artist to start with, she was a painter, then realised she was using her body in many ways, making her a performance artist. She then goes on to discus some of the things she has done and the messages of them, such as eating an Onion and discussing her dislikes, and making relevance of the layers.

So in my search for different performance art pieces I was looking at the work of Marina Abramovic, and stumbled upon her piece Balkan Erotic Epic. I made my roommate watch it with me..It was definitely something different. I mean I never actually finished watching it, mostly because we were either in shock or giggling too much. It was an interesting piece, especially some of the things she said the Balkans did, and it was definitely very memorable, but i don't think i'll be watching that one again!!

Our Last Project
I am actually really happy with how my last project went, it turned out almost exactly how i'd planned, but even better. I had never made the link that my project would not even be able to exist without me holding it. I had the original link that the instrument did not play without me, but I did not make this deeper connection myself originally, this really connected it with the surrealist movement. This is how it turned out!
