Daily Vlog Collaboration (Allatonceness)

Image
 "You must talk to the media, not to the programmer is like complaining to a hot dog vendor at a ballpark about how badly your favorite team is playing" (Pg. 142). I feel like creating the video you do want to talk to the media and keep that engagement of your daily life. Now and days especially with this generation I feel we get caught up with some many other things going on in our daily life. I feel like sometimes you can forgot about those things and be use to that structure. Making videos really does capture those moments of everything.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUzC54uLGcc For the final project I decided to collaborate with my friend and peer Vay. Both of us came with a way of a video calling it "Daily Vlog". In this video we are both describing our day and just giving a day in our lives. This video shows how we through are our days but also the struggles of being a Lawrence student. But in the end we have close friend group that keeps us on our toes. Wi...

Everything We Do (Is Music) SoundScape

Image
 From McLuhan, "We hear sounds from everywhere, without ever having to focus. Sounds come from "above" from "below", from in "front" of us, from "behind" us, from our "right", our "left'. We can't shut out sound automatically. We simply are not equipped with earlids. Where a visual space is an organized continuum of a uniformed connected kind, the ear world is a world of simultaneous relationships" (Pg. 112). I feel like music or just sound makes you already listen and try to grasp that sound. Sometimes that music or sound can be good for you or sometimes not. Sometimes we do not even pay attention to sounds that goes around us.  Profile Pic  So with my song I decided to have a little of bit of R&B music mixed with Hip Hop. On normally day basis I listen to both genre of music all the time literally everyday. For me music calms especially listening to R&B music. I do not know if it's lyrics or the beat...

My World

Some art project I did last term   Hi guys! My name is Tyler Johnson. I am currently a fifth year here at Lawrence. I am Studio Art major and minor in Ethic Studies. I am excited to be in this class and learn how to take photos and make good videos. I feel like for me recently I've been wanting to get into videos and photos because sometimes I make videos and take a lot of photos. I live in Los Angeles, California born and raised. I love living in my city because you can literally do anything out there. Plus you can explore the cities and enjoy those moments with your friends. So here is some images that I have taken to get a sense of me and little bit of my art work at the same.  A photo of me at Rolling Loud, photo of me for 21st birthday party,  For the most part of my life I just be chilling and enjoying life for what it is. Normally I do work, hangout with friends, do adventurous things like going to beach, views, movies, etc. I really do love hanging out with m...

Something Is Happening

Going Around The City  From McLuhan, "By altering the environment evoke in us their unique ratios of sense perceptions. The extension of any one sense alters the way we perceive the world"(Pg. 146). I chose this quote because it talks about the environment and how we can look at things. Also many people have different perspective on objects that you look or current things that is going on in the world.  Black and White Photos  For my photos I just wanted to focus on different things that is going on around in life and the nature of the world. So I just went around campus and downtown to take photos. So I just change the color of the photos and also just played with the camera. So whatever I saw that was interesting that I felt that was apart of nature or life. I just took a picture of it. With the photos I guess I just wanted to get the abstract of the city and different objects that I use and put together. For each album I wanted to use the same scene but in different in...

Time and Space

Image
From McLuhan, "The medium, or process, of our time-electric technology-is reshaping and reshaping and restructuring patterns of social interdependence and every aspect of our personal life"(Pg. 8). I feel like I can relate to this quote because my video is electric and sort of reshaping how things look in my video. I think my video is personal for me because I used current different objects that we use everyday. With a video it can make you see different things or have different perspective.  Picture of Water to relate to my video  For this project I just wanted to focus on the movement of water. So I just decided to film the lake that is on campus. I also did a couple of shots in the art room that is in Memorial Hall. When I was thinking about time and space I just instantly thought about water can be apart of it. In the videos I made as black and white background. You can hear sounds of the water as I pouring on many different objects. I did not know really why I thought ab...

Final

Image
  Coming into the class I would say that I was confused and excited at the same time. I was confused because everything is on a blog website. I thought everything was going to be as usual go to a zoom class and have discussion. The part about me being was excited that I was doing art something that I really loved to do. Also this term was bit of a challenge of getting the work done for this but I did get the work. Along the way I learned  different things which makes me more attracted to art.  For this class it really took out of my comfort zone because normally for art I just draw whatever. For this class to read, take pictures, and come up with creative ideas. To me was so much fun just having to do. Being in this class it expanded makes want to make more pictures explain to other people about diagrams,colors, pattern, time, and motion.  Then also having to post them on Instagram. It gave me visual gallery of my art. I plan on using after term o...

Diagram

Image
  "Diagram allow us to see relationships that would not come forward in a straight list of numbers or verbal description... Diagrams can depict the anatomy of a creature, the heirarchy of a corporation, or the flow of ideas" (Lupton, 215).  Instagram: t.y.__ya_feel_me When I here the "diagram" charts, blueprints, and images that break the structure of something. I decided use a diagram that explains  photosynthesis. It was something that I had learned in middle and high school of my life. This was so important topic to talk about when I had science class.  While reading this chapter I learned that diagrams can breakdown a lot of the art that I have learn this term. To a diagram is a way of following steps and organizing things that you have going on. I really like this topic because it made think about this picture.
