Project Four: Appropriation and Social Comment
Many artists use images from popular culture to comment on society. This is your chance to do that. Download (preferably copyright free files primarily from Archive.org, ) that are recognizable as a specific image or type of image that implies particular content. Juxtapose these images with others (either appropriated or created by you) to explore some social concept you are interested in. Suggest, but don't preach….imply but not use clichés. You may use sound in a similar way. The piece should be 2-3 minutes long.
Technical Goals: More AE, Dynamic Links
