PROJECT PROPOSAL

FOR THE ADVANCED NEW MEDIA IN ART SPRING TERM 2023, I AM GOING TO CONTINUE TO PROVIDE PEOPLE MY AESTHETIC PERSPECTIVE TO APPRECIATE THIS WORLD THROUGH THE LENS OF MY IPHONE. ALL MY WORK IN THIS 10-WEEK PERIOD WILL BE UPLOADED ON THE FLICKER FINALLY; AND I WILL SORT THEM OFF INTO 10 ALBUMS, WHICH MEANS 1 ALBUM PER WEEK. IN EACH ALBUM, THERE SHOULD BE AROUND 5-10 PHOTOGRAPHS. ALSO, I WOULD LOVE TO MAKE A BIG THICK PHOTO BOOK THROUGH THE BOOKWRIGHT WITH THE PHOTOGRAPH THAT I TOOK THIS TERM. THE BOOK SHOULD BE AROUND 50-80 PAGES, IT REALLY DEPENDS ON HOW MANY PHOTOS I AM SATISFIED WITH. BUT THE PAGE NUMBERS WILL BE AROUND THAT AMOUNT. FOR THE REFERENCE ARTIST, I WOULD SAY THERE IS NO ONE THAT I AM MIMICKING, LIKE I SAID I AM PROVIDING PEOPLE MY PERSPECTIVE IN MY WAY IN MY STYLE. BUT IF I NEED TO SAY ONE, THAT MAY BE ANDY WARHOL SINCE I ENJOYED HIS PHOTOGRAPHY A LOT IN THE PAST AND HAVE SEEN TONS OF HIS WORK BEFORE, MAYBE YOU WILL FIND SOME SIMILARITIES BETWEEN MY WORK AND HIS BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT I INTENDED TO. WAIT FOR IT YALL!!!

RICK OWENS

RICK OWENS IS AN AMERICAN-BORN DESIGNER LIVING IN PARIS, KNOWN FOR HIS ABSTRACT, YET APPROACHABLE AVANT-GARDE DESIGNS. BORN RICHARD SATURNINO OWENS, HE BEGAN HIS LABEL IN CALIFORNIA IN 1994 AND NOW OVERSEES A VERITABLE FASHION EMPIRE FROM A FIVE-STORY COMPOUND IN PARIS. IF THERE'S ONE CHARACTERISTIC THAT HAS DEFINED HIS LIFE, IT HAS BEEN OWENS' FIERCE INDEPENDENCE. HIS ECCENTRIC BRUTALIST APPROACH IS EVIDENT IN HIS FASHION, HIS FURNITURE, AND EVEN HIS PERSONAL LIFE. RICK'S REPRESENTATIVE ABSTRACT FASHION DESIGN: THE FIRST GENERATION GEOBASKET INITIALLY INTRODUCED IN FALL/WINTER 2006'S "DUSTULATOR" COLLECTION, RICK OWENS DESIGNED THE GEOBASKET BECAUSE HE FELT THAT ATHLETIC SHOES WERE SIMPLY TOO "PROSAIC." PULLING ELEMENTS FROM NIKE, ADIDAS AND PUMA, OWENS WAS ATTEMPTING TO—IN HIS WORDS—CREATE MONSTER TRUCKS FOR HIS FEET. THE RESULT WAS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN MOON BOOT AND HIGH-TOP, FEATURING AN ULTRA-EXTENDED TONG

PROJECT #2

THE ROLE OF AUTHORSHIP IS THAT PEOPLE COULD TELL “HELL YEAH THAT’S BOWEN’S WORK!” BECAUSE THERE IS MY SOUL, MY STYLE, AND EVEN MY EXPERIENCE IN MY WORK. MY WORK EQUALS TO MY NAME IN SOME ASPECTS. OF COURSE, I CONSIDER MY WORK ORIGINAL, BECAUSE I EXERCISE MY AESTHETIC BY READING A HUGE VARIETY OF WORKS, WHICH ARE IN VERY DIFFERENT KINDS OF STYLES. THEN I COME UP WITH MY OWN STUFF. WHEN THE AUDIENCE LOOK AT MY WORK, THEY COULD ONLY TELL OH THAT ARTWORK LOOKED A LITTLE BIT LIKE BLABLABLA’S WORK, BUT ALSO A LITTLE BIT LIKE DLADLADLA’S WORK. BUT FUCK NO, IT IS JUST L I K E, THAT STYLE IS BOWEN’S STYLE MY ORIGINAL SHIT. EVERYONE WHO STARES AT MY WORK FOR MORE THAN 3 MINUTES COULD “TAKE POSSESSION” OF MY WORK AND DERIVE THEIR OWN MEANING FROM IT. I THINK WHEN THE AUDIENCE GET THE BEAUTY OF MY STUFF, AT THAT MOMENT, THEY TAKE POSSESSION OF IT. AND THEY COULD ALSO DERIVE THEIR OWN MEANING FROM IT BECAUSE PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES OF LIFE COULD DEFINITELY DERI VE DIFFERENT MEANIN

PROJECT #3

“BEETHOVEN’S DEAFNESS DESIGNATES THE LACK WHEREIN RESIDES ALL SIGNIFICATION; IT APPEALS TO A MUSIC THAT IS NOT ABSTRACT OR INWARD, BUT THAT IS ENDOWED, IF ONE MAY PUT IT LIKE THIS, WITH A TANGIBLE INTELLIGIBILITY, WITH THE INTELLIGIBL E AS TANGIBLE.” BARTHES (P. 152) BEETHOVEN’S MUSIC IS OFTEN SEEN AS A REFLECTION OF HIS INNERMOST THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS. HIS DEAFNESS, HOWEVER, FORCED HIM TO RELY ON HIS OTHER SENSES, PARTICULARLY HIS SENSE OF TOUCH AND VIBRATION, TO CREATE HIS MUSIC. HE WOULD OFTEN PLACE HIS HANDS ON THE PIANO OR ON THE WALLS OF HIS ROOM TO FEEL THE VIBRATIONS OF THE SOUND HE WAS CREATING. THIS ALLOWED HIM TO CREATE MUSIC THAT WAS NOT JUST AUDITORY, BUT THAT WAS ALSO TACTILE AND PHYSICAL. AS FOR MY PROJECT, I SHARED MY PERSPECTIVE TO ENJOY THE BEAUTY IN OUR LIFE. IT COULD BE USED AS A TOOL HELP AUDIENCE FIND THE BEAUTY IN THEIR LIFE. BASED ON MY UNDERSTANDING, THE ESSENCE OF LIVING IS TRYING TO ENJOY THE PROCESS OF IT, PEOPLE, MAYBE, CAN GET MORE PLEASURE FROM LIV
