I received a video art assignment that read:

Though relatively young, the use of video as a medium has already developed into various genres… Each of these has established a certain format that is readily acceptable by a board public in a smooth uncritical way… All I am asking you in this project is to look at one of these traditions and cast doubt on them through disruption.

Basically, I needed to find one or more points in a use of video and replace the element with something else to find out the results. Initially I wanted to use footage from Friends and replace the dialogues with something unintelligible to the common people but preserving the annoying laughing tracks. But I did not really like the idea, because I needed voices of various people. More...

One project outline for an art class I attended read:

Suitcase Project: Find a suitcase (any size) or it can be a typewriter case or any other case with handles etc. You are to alter/transform/change/perform with/document/whatever you want, it’s up to you. It’s your idea. Create an environment inside/outside do something strange/silly/unusual/new/great/stupid/OK.

Ideas began to pour through. While sorting through my trash, one idea caught on – to convert egg trays I collected for another project into a suitcase. I decided to paint each side of the egg tray wells in different colours. I thought it was worth exploring what was possible when one applies a chaotic combination of colours onto an organized pattern. More...
