I centered my video art piece on the errors of humans on other species of animal. There are many people in today's world that ignore the horrors of what the human race can do to other living creatures. In this video I wanted to show how there may be people who turn the other way, but there are also many who will embrace the errors we see and are trying to fight and correct them.

Embrace the Error

Golan Levin
Golan Levin's AMA video is fascinating. He is an extremely intelligent man and I love his use of experimental 3D Cinema on himself as he is answering questions about technology and life. I thoroughly enjoyed the part of the video when the camera angle changed to looking up at his chin starting at his hands. The distortion of his detail as a human made the video and what he was saying more powerful. Levin's ideas about open source government are pretty interesting and insightful. I loved when he was discussing neurons and the entire atmosphere being connected, as a distortion himself. Levin really enhanced himself as a person using 3D effects, making what he was saying even more interesting. The idea of all of our kinetics being interconnected is proven in this video. The grid lines and black out spots represent us as figures in space. I am going to recommend this video to others and research more about several topics Levin discussed.

Musical Artists
DISCO:
Diana Ross is one of my favorite artists, especially. As a kid I grew up listening to a variety of older music rather than listening to what my generation was producing. Ross's music videos uses special effects that resemble experiments with a program similar to iMovie with the transitions and such. In other videos of hers she utilized gray scale and experimented with older camera footage incorporation.
PUNK:
The Vandals utilize a great deal of technology in their music videos. They even have a performance art piece for their song "Don't Stop Me Now". There are special effects, such as cars being thrown through the air. Many effects were done to skew the normal world using black and white scale, giving the video a very static look.
NINETIES:
Fountains of Wayne use of technology is also geared in their music videos. One video in particular is for the song, "Stacy's Mom". This video is interesting because they project the band playing the song onto books and the television screen, having the actors interact with it. The video of the band members is scaled to be purple, almost resembling them being drawn with a pencil and colored in.
TECHNO:
Robert Babicz-Babiczmi uses technology to create all of his music. Everything he creates is using pre recorded sounds from synthesizers. His music has no lyrics, but the beats and rhythms are his own and they are pretty rad!
ELECTRONIC:
Amon Tobin-Bricolage uses technology to create different sounds and beats using other music. There are sirens that go off and drum beats that are repeated and are constant. Using technology, his sound machines, he can increase the volume of certain parts of his music, utilizing crescendos, but without worrying about specific individual band performers ignoring the symbols and cues.
