Hologram Sales Person at the Galleria Mall

Finding Welcome GIFs - thinking about being welcomed to an online space vs. welcomed into a tangible gallery/museum. Interesting that certain social conventions carry over to the 2.0 internet, like: welcoming people to a space, providing directions, decorating spaces, some manners. Need to think more about this

EXIT - IRL EXIT: emergency, safety requirement to have visible exit signs

URL EXIT: an option to leave, close the tab, not really exiting but changing the destination, modelled off of real life exit signs

Found a tissue on the floor (second image)!!! This is the first time i’ve seen something on google museums that is very obviously not meant to be there.

Confused about the pot plants lined up. Are they meant to be there? Looks like they’re lined up to receive some sun and a water but there’s no sun.

Screenshotting corners of rooms that have objects out of place, or look like they’re meant to be hidden away/not documented.

- fire hydrants - exposed wires - marks on floors - gallery attendant chairs - sneak peeks of rooms not meant for exhibition visitors - symbols on walls - signs - doors - windows - plants

- bins - backrooms - lockers

- open doors to external corridors (outside the museum entrance) - postcards - old computer monitors - open books and pens - flowers - untucked chairs - papers and documents

- plants in galleries, to make gallery non-spaces more inviting? or more interesting maybe? in corridors from gallery to gallery, and in corridors leading to exits and bathrooms

I’ve been thinking about paintings and how my compositions might be similar or different to archived paintings. I have a lot to learn and research about the history of painting. Have pulled these from various dates. Mostly selecting paintings based on: - interesting and familiar subject matter - colours (similar to the ones i’m working with) - or baroque details that I feel are visually reoccurring in the GIF research I have been doing A lot of them are paintings that feel like ordinary situations/scenarios that’ve been exaggerated/made surreal through the documentation process. The last one was very strange to stumble across because it looks similar to my sparkle composition with the pink background.
