the conceptual thinking behind it works a little like this: the many, working together to build a unified collective (e pluribus unum, america!) which then has the capacity to broadcast its motives, hopes, dreams, ideas, and solutions to the rest of the world. idealistically, once the new collective, formed out of necessity, has achieved its goals, it may dissipate. it remains, however, invisible but everywhere, willing to rejoin together again at the first sign of renewed distress. in this way, even the way the clip is loopable is conceptually significant.
things i have learned from this project include:
how to batch import images into illustrator! (aka: how to use scripts)
further after-effectation
how to explain, cleanly and cooperatively, what politics in question are all about so as to avoid conflict
how to tread lightly around people who disagree with said politics even within context of a design project
as i understand it, we will be sharing these with the people to whom they directly relate. this means my file can be provided to kc occupiers to tag on the end of footage, if they wish! although there are a good lot of us around here doing it, so it might get a little confusing trying to get them to use one choice.
enjoy! stand up in solidarity!
