Second attempt of my video
Time lapse + Disaster footages
REFLECTION OF TIME BASED MEDIA PROJECT
This is my final video for CIC Time Based Media Project. The video is basically about Art of destruction, which is natural destruction like earth quake, volcano eruption, tsunami, tornado, storm and more. I have researched through lots of videos about the natural disaster. However, i found that, only the footages in the movies can bring up the impact i wished to present.
In my first attempt, i tried to do a super cut of all the natural disasters and along with epic impactful background music. However, it turned up very expected.
So i decided to add in some time lapse of wind, ice melting and so on to show case the power of the wind, ice, water and so on. The result was quite boring when i showed it to friends.
Finally, I came out with the idea of combining super cut of natural disaster with contemporary dance and ballet. Contemporary dance and classic ballet dance always give a very slow and elegance impression to the audience. By combining them with the impactful destruction, a strong contrast between them create another form of art. At first, I thought this would be one of the experiment. And, the result turned up interesting and unexpected. So, I decided to use this as my final project video.
I have no much research to show as everything just went through my brain when I was thinking. The sources i used in my video are all basically from movie as listed below:
1. Black swan
2. 2012
3. The impossible
4. The day after tomorrow
5. Volcano
6. Dante's peak
7. A performance of contemporary dance from
Youtube:

8. Anna Pavlova in Dying Swan from Youtube : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW01o9x0Alc
9. Knowing
For technical part, I downloaded Final Cut Pro X TRIAL to my computer. I am quite familiar with the software because of my FTV major. I have no technical difficulties while doing this video. I combined the dancing footages and disaster footages by overlay the low opacity dancing footage to the top of disaster footages.
The most challenging part would be matching the dance with the disaster scene so that the combination will make sense. I have been trying out all the possibility and observe every movements of the dance.
Hope you will like it. Enjoy.

Unveiling Frida Kahlo’s Closet
When the Mexican painter Frida Kahlo died in 1954, her husband muralist Diego Rivera locked her clothes and jewelry- all personal possessions- into a bathroom. Diego instructed that the room to be unlocked fifteen years after his own death. Forgotten, they stayed there for fifty years.
No one knew what was behind that locked door. Staring back from a life more notorious than most, were 300 items of Frida’s. Her jewelry, clothing, hair accessories, a prosthetic leg, leather corsets, painted plaster casts and body molds.
All the physical and emotional pain, joy and vitality is told through stories carried in Frida’s clothing and accessories. This treasure trove is organized into an exhibition titled Appearances Can Be Deceiving: The Dresses of Frida Kahlo,featuring eleven of Kahlo’s ensembles rotating every three months, showing forty outfits over the course of a year.
Conservators and curators said while excavating the hidden room, it was as if Frida was alongside them in the room. Her colorful clothing emitted a sense of happiness, while her hospital items, the casts and even medicine, were powerful to witness and held onto her sadness.
Vogue Mexico is producing a room for the exhibition that will feature commissioned work from contemporary designers who have been influenced by Kahlo. A rep for the magazine declined to reveal the specific designers working on the project, but said that “they are international designers and one Mexican designer — all of them are very recognized in the fashion industry.”
The fashion curator Circe Henestrosa dug through the time capsule and organized the exhibition. Henestrosa says,"Garments are very powerful tools for social and cultural interpretation. These objects and garments tell you so much about the wearer and yes, the items do have a smell….how to describe the smell….it’s her. It’s a unique, beautiful smell, of her skin."
Focusing on the issues of “disability” and “ethnicity,” the exhibition will be displayed in Frida Kahlo’s former home in Coyoacan, a suburb of Mexico City, the Frida Kahlo Museum (Casa Azul) through November 2013.

Photographer Parker Fitzgerald (on Tumblr) and floral designer Riley Messina in the artistic collaboration: Overgrowth.
Inspired by a pursuit of beauty, Riley combines classically thoughtful botanical designs with Parker’s carefully considered film images in an expression of the multifaceted relationship between humankind and nature. The two artists contrast anonymous portraiture with sweeping landscapes in an attempt to capture both the malleable and untamed aspects of the natural world.
Combination of nature and human.
Art Writer’s Wednesday 1 - Tumblr Artist
Loui Jover | on Tumblr (Australia)
“I paint, I draw, and I do it everyday.” Loui Jover is a self represented full time artist from Queensland, Australia. His artwork involves drawing in ink over adhered-together vintage book papers. Loui has held three solo exhibitions and has been included in numerous group shows. Leslie Seuffert interviewed the Artist for Artchipel’s Art Writer’s Wednesday #1.
Leslie Seuffert for Artchipel : You’ve recently joined Tumblr to share your art with the community. Who is Loui Jover? Tell us about your educational background and your creative style. LJ : I did a number artistic training including studies in contemporary art, advanced visual communication and commercial art at Melbourne Art Institute, Gold Coast Tafe and at a visual training institute in Sydney. I joined Tumblr to look at the world it presents, where all are invited to contribute, where there is no exclusion, where there is an amazing diversity and freedom. It is vibrant and vigorous, bold and random and most of all inspiring. The inspiration is one of the most important things any artist needs to tap into.
LS : Why drawing, as opposed to another outlet? LJ : I think drawing came naturally, it is immediate and visceral. I learnt music for a number of years, I tried and still enjoy doing some writing. I also studied painting but always come back to drawing in ink, pen and brush as this is what I get the most satisfaction from. It is the medium in which I am the most “free” to express. It is my primary method of self-expression.
LS : You draw almost exclusively on sheets of vintage book paper. Why and how this choice of material is performed? LJ : The use of old vintage book pages is the advent of a number of reasons. Firstly I needed paper and I glued these sheets I had from an old ruined book. The decision became entrenched when I looked at the aesthetic result of that first drawing. The idea that damaged and unwanted books could be saved and reused appealed to his ideals about re-imagining and recycling things from around his local environment. The works seem to make an indirect reference to the fact that books themselves are seemingly dying with the advent of the ebook and technology.
LS : What are you trying to express through your drawings? LJ : I am not always sure what it is I am attempting to express, that’s why I do so many differing forms of drawing and visual work. I make cartoons to show my more flippant comical and sarcastic side, I make large drawings of faces to express a more emotive facet, I also create more experimental work such as mixed media drawings and digital collage to try and extend my forays into my expressive discoveries. But in the end it is the pure joy of drawing itself that propels my need to create artwork.
LS : The women in your painting often appear quite gloomy. Is there a reason or is it coincidental? LJ : I do try to express the feeling of melancholia, it is my main motivation to illustrate a collective sadness or reflective nature. I personally think these drawings are a direct visceral reaction to the prevailing “sad” state of the human condition itself. In another way, they are my own answer to the blue period by Pablo Picasso that inspired and burned its way into my artistic psyche at a very early age.
LS : What is your favorite piece? LJ : I do not have a favorite work as I am on this journey where if I was to become completely happy with a work, I would be at its end. I think for most artists, if you make the perfect drawing, you are bound to start repeating yourself. If you end up repeating yourself as an artist, it’s time to re-evaluate why you are making art in the first place.
LS : If you had to sum up what your art means, what would it say? LJ : Art tempers my spirit, it gives me direction. Without art I would most likely be a psychopath. One can spend a lifetime looking at the world but seldom do they “see” anything. My art helps me to “see” life around me, without art things seem brutal and pointless.
