^{moving everything over here to make myself happy. um. not much to say here but to trust the process.}

^{Material suggestions: security cameras, shifting angle paintings}

^{Ideas for another piece: Flat Earth, UFOs}

^{you know this one- the walls are listening}

^{Material suggestions: clay}

^{Ideas for another piece: I’m all ears, need a hand, I got your back, eyes in the back of your head} 

^{things that go bump in the night}

^{Material suggestions: Camera parts!!!, fake bugs?}

^{Ideas for another piece: Immortal Snail, shivers down my spine (spiders)}

• ^{What I like most about your sustained investigation question is:}

  • ^{I like the two “what if” questions because it really feels like an exploration of sorts}

• ^{You could expand this idea by exploring:}

  • ^{The paranoia that would come with the world being out to get you, or conspiracies being real.}

• ^{You could make this idea more specific by focusing on:}

  • ^{Same with the paranoia}

• ^{One way to experiment with materials and processes related to your question is:}

  • ^{This is more staging but if you’re doing 3d then playing with distance and having creatures or whatever is after you kinda far in the background like looming over.}

• ^{An artist, material or technique you should check out is:}

  • ^{For sure cameras that would be so cool}

• ^{What I like most about your sustained investigation question is:}

  • ^{I like how you can really relate to the themes of paranoia and how the vibe of your question and pieces can be easily understood by the audience}

^{You could expand this idea by exploring:}

• ^{Ways in which you can imply a feeling caused by your theme, like bugs for a creepy crawly feeling or a maze for a trapped with nowhere to go kind of feeling. You could also look at cases where people lost their mind. You could also look at crossing the line of obsession}

• ^{You could make this idea more specific by focusing on:}

  • ^{Making it focused on the general people, or a certain group?}

• ^{One way to experiment with materials and processes related to your question is:}

  • ^{String, clay, perspective in which the drawing itself moves or the audience moves}

• ^{An artist, material or technique you should check out is:}

  • ^{Cameras, recordings, video tapes}

^{i was trying to go for a knight's helmet as protection, but while the prop is fine (potential edit: airbrush some dark gray paint for shadows?), the lighting and camera work isn't. more thought required for the final piece, but this isn't awful,,,,}

^{materials: cardboard, masking tape, aluminum foil}

^{process: cardboard base; attach foil to it via tape}

^{potential framing: circular- might need people to reach out and pull off the mask (ask anavi and hari during class if they can help with that part maybe?)}

^{(magnified, hyper-vigilance - fears/ paranoia were justified - worst case scenario actually happened, protection)}

^{- be okay with the question changing over time as long as the central idea remains the same}

^{- think about how you would make a revision on each piece and show them together - digital layering can be revised easily (photos)}

^{- think of submitting pieces as multiple versions (a vs b) (series over time)}

^{- clear composition}

^{- clear lighting source}

^{- more texture}

^{- layering}

^{- dynamic angles}

^{materials: plastic, tape, wire, the circle tape rolls in the center of the roll. hot glue}

^{process: idk i was not conscious during it /silly. uhhhh i made wire triangles and taped plastic on and prayed}

^{framing: angular my beloved <3}

^{materials: si2 + acrylic paint.}

^{process: mix together colors to look like blood; flick on with paintbrush. also coat hand in it and smear yayayay}

^{framing: framed!!!!!}

^{How do people's defenses from a world where paranoias are reality spiral out of control?}

^{materials: pill bottle, air dry clay, Posca, assorted paper types, fountain pens, hot glue (for making the pill bottle +paper) black paper, mirrors, lamp (for staging)}

^{process: you tell me. made clay thingies and put them in bottle. experimented with fountain pens on paper types to record facts about benzodiazepines (?) and alprazolam overdose. staged it surrounded by mirrors and photographed. edited on Canva to put on background and add gradient}

^{framing: can I call this radiating. i'm not quite sure}

^{materials: idk. canvas. clay. white paint. hot glue at one point because the clay broke off the thingy. attempted to use ink and coffee. no comment.}

^{process: yes.}

^{framing: well it was SUPPOSED to be diagonal and stuff when it was tilted and photographed right. however the world is evil and hates me specifically. <- fancy way of saying idk}

^{materials: foam board. hot glue. nails. posca. like a lot of posca. cannot stress how much posca. plastic NEW! plastic (roof). also ink! yippeee!}

^{process: so I took SI 6, which doesn't yet exist. and I. went crazy. crazy? I was crazy once. they put me in a room. a rubber room. a rubber room with rats. rats make me crazy.}

^{framing: I! don't! know! I just photographed! I will say that some of the photos look vaguely angular. like sauntering vaguely downwards.}

^{materials: posca, foam board, thin plastic idk what it's called. tape and hot glue}

^{process: carved lines into base, hot glued on side panels. painted it all black. drew furniture on plastic. cut them out & taped them together for final pieces; attached into room w/ tape.}

^{framing: nonexistent. in hindsight that's probably why I dislike this piece.}

^{Inquiry Question: How does paranoia cause hyper-vigilance and eventually, misery?}

^{Shown in pieces 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8}

^{Meaningful Materials: Plastic layers (Saran wrap/plastic sheets), coffee grounds, & pill bottles}

^{Shown in pieces 2, 3, 4, 5, 7}

^{Practice/Revision: In SI 9, which is a progress photo, I show my first attempt at making a ring versus my semi-final one. In addition, SI 3 builds on SI 2 by adding blood-stains to the piece. SI 7 is also an addition to SI 6; I added clear layers and drew upon it.}

^{Experiments: I'm working with rain in SI 9; I previously experimented with mirrors and coffee!}

^{Greatest Strengths: I think my lighting and composition is really strong in my photography.}

^{Support Needed: I'd owe you my life if you could suggest me meaningful materials and project ideas!!!!}

^{materials: cardboard <3, acrylic paint, hot glue, string, and tape. so much tape.}

^{process: i x-actoed the cardboard based on vibes. taped it together with joy. painted it cautiously. attempted to attach the stand- mistake one. with hot tape- eventually switched to hot glue. photographed Hari looking at it}

^{framing: diagonal and somehow circular? idk how the bg factors into this.}

^{^ can replace an old SI mayhaps}

^{materials: clay. hot glue. standard photography equipment.}

^{process: there's a whole SI about this. i made circles out of clay. rolled them into logs and then shaped and smoothened. uh. let dry, cracked a little and repaired with hg. practiced rings: ended up lopsided and too thin.}

^{framing: erm. it's lowkey like. triangular? is there a vision? ot radiating, in a sense. kinda. not really.}

^{a book cover for realsies. mightttt add the hands to this because i ;pve me a good vertical photo. that being said i won't do it anytime soon!1!!1 (lazy)}

^{use the medicine bottles to . idk. make prints or something.}

^{maybe paint a portrait of someone using the medicine bottle. on something 3d. idk.}

^{maybe something transparent and just layer it over in different colors? oohhhh.}

^{materials: clear plastic, acrylic paint, & medicine bottles}

^{processes: painted with pill bottles & acrylic paint}

^{framing: sure}

^{materials: medicine bottles, wire, hot glue}

^{process: followed a tutorial to make a body out of wire, then posed it to make it look like it's doing a balancing act of sorts with the botle (and failing, as evidenced by the dropped items). proof that people say they have it under control, but alas.}

^{framing: triangular? idk lowkey}

^{doesn't really look like a brain tbh}

^{materials: dsm-5 pages, glue, ink, cardboard, tape, water}

^{processes: made the brain, paper-mached pages onto it}

^{framing: angular to show disbalance/assymetry}

^{materials: DSM 5 pages. staples}

^{processes: weavinggggg}

^{framing: linear}
