Concept Ideas

At home, we have bathroom mirror cabinet things that split into three mirrors to form one, right? Well, ever since watching The Ring and Ringu in middle school [I watched Ringu by myself wtffffff is wrong with me?], I've been super afraid of anything that gives off a reflection. Especially mirrors. And so every time I look into the bathroom mirrors, I have to check each one of them to make sure that it's me in the mirror, but it's always really scary because what if it ISN'T me [It's weird that I haven't done drugs, specifically hallucinogenic drugs.]. 


Thus spurred the idea of an installation [I have noooo idea how I would do it.] involving a three piece mirror in which the viewer's reflection would be slightly different and distorted in each of the three mirrors. I suppose I would want to evoke a sense of fear and uncertainty. However, I think this would be a selfish and mean endeavor because I would just want other people to sort of feel paranoid like I do. D8 D8 D8


Anyway, sketched some stuff today, will get those scanned once I get back up to Church, aka the Newly Established Church of Friendship, aka the Church of lulz, aka my apartment. lol. I figure that if I go on a rampage to be as offensive as I can, then I will figure something out in the end. Wherever that is. 


Why not?


Also, here is what I am currently listening to. Old, but good.

Idea: Gravity Boy

When I don't sleep, I think.

The idea of gravity came into mind. Scientists still don't really know what it is, but basically, it's like the force that keeps these magnetic chess pieces standing upright on the board. [image from google]


We always have this mindset of what is up or down [ex: gravity is pulling us down]. But what if you could control which "direction" gravity goes in?

THEREFORE:

Gravity Boy and his friend, Paula, otherwise known as gravity [she keeps her secrets so well that scientists don't even know how she works!].

Gravity Boy doesn't defy gravity, he... manages it? Or he works with it/her. I've done some sketches for it... but they're not very clear. What I want to portray is gravity changing "directions" so instead of falling down, maybe you'll fall to the left or 28 degrees to the right. 






In the following image, see how he is falling down... then gravity shifts [just for him] and so he is actually falling to the left now. Yayyyy it's like he's flying. But really just constantly falling. What a terrible feeling that must be. Hm. 




Most likely this will be stuffed into my file of stories I will probably never finish lol

Among those in more recent times...
  • a reversal of gender roles in wartime
  • everyone gets drunk within a certain tolerance radius of a girl, so she becomes friends with a really big guy because he has a pretty high tolerance to alcohol... but alcohol hurts your body just the same, whether you feel it or not.
  • how we would live our lives if we didn't know/acknowledge death/mortality
  • a film about the ends of movies that is really long and boring that seems like it'll never end and then ends abruptly #trolling
  • lessons learned from driving
  • a lesbian woman or gay man [originally had it woman, but iono. Never developed story enough to decide] who is only attractive to the opposite sex [I'll just conveniently put an ad in right here... can't figure out why the banner html won't show up. Lame.]
