Idea 3-Spectacle
December 11, 2008
For my final artefact I want to make a spectacle of myself (not like dancing on the table at a wedding or something of the like). I want to create a spectacle that reflects me, and my points of veiw.
A spectacle is defined as:
“Anything presented to the sight or view, esp. something of a striking or impressive kind.”
dictionary.com
This definition makes it easy to create something as a spectacle, as long as its visual, it can be seen as a spectacle. But to make something spectacular is something else. Now, I’m not saying that this piece will be visually stunning, I just don’t want to fall into the trap of making something that easily defined as a spectacle because its simply ‘visual’. I want to show myself as a spectacle, an object of spectating.
