Perfoming Art with Technology
For my performance art piece, I chose to explore the relationship between technology and us as students and memeber of society. We all always have our phones attatched to our hips so I asked the question: Does technology control us? Does technology control me? Does technology hinder our creativity? After asking these questions, I promptly broke my cell phone, dipped it in finger paints and smeared it on poster board. I then took my own hands and dipped them in the paint, then created my hand prints on the paper to demonstrate even with our high involovement with technology, we can still hold on to our individuality.

I really liked the message you said before you broke your phone. I think it's definitely true that we rely on technology too much.
taylor- though i missed your performance, it looks cool and makes me think about how often i look at my phone throughout the day.
I thought your preformance was clear and to the point. Well done.
Your 'broken phone' piece really was a great representation of individualism. You did an awesome job and really kept it creative!
Hey tylor. ..
I was interesting to see your performance .. But I couldnt ..
But the idea looks nice .. :)
Brisk and efficient, good job
I really like your message, that even though technology is everywhere, we still have to keep our personalities!
I really agree with the message, which seems to have been that cell-phones are a necessity in today's world; an unfortunate one at that.
Very nice performance, my favorite part was when you broke the cell phone
i really liked how you broke a phone, used it to paint with, then took your own hands and use that to paint with- then compared the two identities.. awesome.
