Inspiration Digging

The three sites listed below and the following review were suggested by my instructor and will certainly aid me in sculpting my first Flash endeavor.

“Their Circular Life” seems a vague and condescending title for a body of work and at first it deterred me from engaging this site. However, when I became eventually drawn by curiosity to the photographic genius of the artist’s truly circulatory art, I realized that he named it truly and with no pretense. This site demands interaction between the viewer and the environments provided which does much more for me then simply pressing an arrow directed right. Also, I find the sound to be well synced with the surroundings and would be interested to know how he recorded the sound and was able to make it associate with a single moment in his fluidly circular environments.

The idea behind this one was typical, but she made it her own by describing the feeling of the moments depicted. Her imaginative “cigarette” which concluded her day seemed to pull the piece together as a whole. I found that the lack of identity for the blonde woman did not detract from the personal characteristic of the action photographs. I appreciated the musical aspect as well.

I am exceptionally frustrated with this piece. It’s name prophesizes a magnificent revelation and, yet, when you interact with it by clicking on the screen (which seems only logical seeing how their isn’t anything else to do) you proceed endlessly towards the horizon. There seems to be no end- and yet I hold my finger unmoving in desperate hope that I might be close to the answer. How wonderfully absurd.
