There are many creative possibilities of "crowdsourcing" online, however choosing two unique art projects from a multitude of sites, was a difficult task. Man with the Movie Camera was an engaging and interesting concept. The website, which contains every shot in Vertov’s 1929 film, allows the participants to interpret Vertov’s shot and upload their footage to the database. A scene of railroad tracks was the first picture chosen as part of the project.  Two excellent sites, found on West Fourth Street in Reno, Nevada, were filmed and posted to the site. The One Million Master Piece also presented an intriguing and unique idea.  It allowed you to create a picture, enter it into the project, thus creating one, giant artistic collaboration. This site gathers artwork from one million ordinary people from around the world, combining their works into a grand masterpiece.  Given a small blank square, and using software on their website, allowed me to draw a picture to fit within the surrounding pieces.  This is accomplished by using a preview feature, showing your image in context of other submissions.

YouTube Video Montage

Interactive Website (Click Here) Artist Summary: The YouTube Video Montage , due to the wide range and selection of videos, was an interesting process. The composition represents the business and cluster of media and television.  The concept is based on flooding our minds with stimulus and determining the outcome. Varieties of videos were chosen to interpret the meaning throughout this piece, and are as follows: (1)    The technology of beautification and image altering. (2)    Charlie Sheen and how he is self-destructing in the eyes of the media. (3)    The hypnotizing spiral showing the unknowingness of media and how it alters our      thoughts. (4) (7) & (10) The images of people zoning out from television, showing how television wasn't       created to educate or enlighten you, but created to sell things and ideas. One video calls TV the drug of the nation. (5) This video expresses the idea that there is always something better presenting itself to you,         ur

Triptych Digital Montage

  Artist Summary: This piece was composed of one scanned image of my hand and a photocopy of Teen Vogue on a page about Emma Watson. The rest of the images were selected based on their intriguing qualities.   It involved many different forms of digital art such as fashion, love, beauty, and emotion, as well as and creative interest in tattoos and surreal art. All three compositions were designed differently but show the same overall image intensity per each montage. Showing collective images will catch your attention and attract your eyes along the way.

FINGERBANGING

“FINGERBANGING” For all of you who don't know about The Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) it is a small virulently homophobic, anti-Semitic hate group that regularly stages protests around the country. They are more famously known for protesting the funerals of soldiers killed in action, terrorist victims or other noteworthy people to say that those deaths are God’s penance for rampant homosexuality. The members of punk band called Get Shot! decided to protest the ultra-conservative Westboro Baptist Church by filming a porn of their bass player (Laura Lush) masturbating naked on the organization's front lawn to protest their hatred and unhealthy attitudes towards sex. Laura said, "The Phelps family and Westboro Baptist Church are ridiculous and do nothing except spread hate and cause controversy…As a bisexual woman and the bass player of a ridiculous punk band, I wanted to spread my legs and cause controversy." I personally think it’s a creative, if t
