An artefact for/on/or about the body

I was interested in balance in the body. I recently started to do yoga and during balancing exercises, I noticed that there is always one side of the body that I felt more balanced about. So, for example, I could balance longer on my left leg than on my right leg. Balance.jpg

I started to consider how other parts of my body are in balance in relation to each other. For example, I am right handed so there is a really big imbalance between using my right hand and left hand for activities. I read about Leonardo Da Vinci [6] using both of his hands in perfect sync. This also meant that he was balancing out his right and left brain hemisphere usage, changing between rational and creative thinking.
ambidextrous = disastrous?
I started from the basic motion of writing, coloring, tracing. As input for this I used letters found in magazines and books around me and from the found image I started reproducing it with my right an left hand.

I was interested of how a machine would further distort the images that I created so I fed them to the embroidery machine. I was curious whether the machine would be able to correct the small defects that for example my left hand drawn image had due to shakiness and instability. As for the material I choose to transpose the images on socks because they can be worn in either leg functioning the same way, a very ambidextrous material for the body.

I also found it was interesting how the embroidery machine can use different patterns to stitch the image is given. I tried out the N because I was not at all satisfied with the big green blob that it was.

(in)human factors - STRETCHING- sensitivity training

first 4 videos
Stretching of the human body - The limit of the human body is sometimes obvious, but sometimes it can be played around. We accept that some people can bend more then us, but how do we know for sure what is the limit for every individual? In this world of enhancement we took footage of 4 yoga poses where we exagerated the strech. When is the point where the person reached the maximum and what is fictional?

final video
for the final video, we tried to alienate the yogaposes even more. we filmed a sequence, a series of poses, and exaggerated them in after effects. we also filmed some closeups, to make the video more dynamic. then we turned the video black & white, inverted for a deeper effect. we recorded sounds in logic x pro to work/go with the weirdness of the movements. (video is too big for a gif, you can view it on youtube :-))
