FIRST ASSIGNMENT



MEME

The Doge

Doge is a slang term for “dog” that is primarily associated with pictures

of Shiba Inus (nicknamed “Shibe”) and internal monologue captions on Tumblr.

These photos may be photoshopped to change the dog’s face or captioned

with interior monologues in Comic Sans font. >http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/doge<


Features:

- Comic Sans

- Bad grammar

- Monolog

- Hysteria

- Dog with a human expression

- Deformation

- Remix

- Repetition

What if the meme was used within a topical serious context ?


Refugee doge

With context as our overal theme we created a multi layered meme

which contains the opinions of certain groups within the western community.

Depending on the context we make our decisions wether we agree with

something or not.


The current situation in the middle-east is in a few ways similar to the second

world war. We take the refugees as a subject to use for our installation. By making

one image of the two events we create a different dimension in which the same

comments generate an ethical concern.

SECOND ASSIGNMENT



HET WINKELTJE

OBSERVE

Walking with an iPhone in your pocket will trace more than you think.
Google Maps for instance will trace all your activities and is actually looking at you all the time.
This is something we used for our research.
We have been looking at people’s behaviour while they weren’t aware of us looking up close to them.
We have researched www.insecam.org.
We have the possibility to view all kind of places through security camera’s of other people who didn’t change their password.
