This weekend humor:
1.Yellow latex gloves
2.Accidently driving to exit 75
3.Drawing on pong table while people are beer ponging
4.Covering up Conan’s drawing on the beer pong table.
5.Taking a bunch of people in my car driving around campus to figure out what’s wrong with my 6.car and then the car was mysteriously not messing up when I have a car full of people inspecting
7.Making music with latex gloves
8.Conan, Hugh, and Jacob messing with dumpster raccoon.
9.Looked up Chinese Zodiac with Davids roommate-scornfully truthful
What is humor?
Difference between: sarcasm, satire, irony
Last humorous work of art you saw?
Sarcasm-Assholes playing around but really telling the truth/ have a sharpness/ saying the opposite of what you mean
Irony-Reverse of what it is/Romeo and Juliet
Satire-human or individual vices, follies, abuses, or shortcomings are held up to censure by means of ridicule, derision, burlesque, irony, or other methods, ideally with the intent to bring about improvement

11/11/09 Daily Notes
Class goes to The Mint Museum. Lauren picks me up
I was really wishing the Julie Heffernan painting was going to be there but it wasn't.
I enjoyed looking at the shoe gallery, couture clothing gallery, and the Loïs Mailou Jones gallery.
This one painting of someone buttering a bagel was so amazing. I can not believe so many colors could go into just one bagel.
I love the red and cream shows that had a sort of spiral design on them and then all of the vintage clothing that sparkled.

11/4/09 Daily Notes
Critique day for other groups:
The only one that stuck out in my mind was the life size cut outs going around the Belk Tower.
I think it really stated a message and it was so awesome when people started adding to it by painting the rainbow scheme on paper and posting it up. Also I believe there was a message wrote out in chalk by other groups.
Then to top it off the super annoying preacher was out there which drew in lots of attention.
Super affective piece, good job to the Gay Rights Group

10/26/09 Project Notes/ Advising Day
Advising Day! CRAZYNESS!
Met with Lauren to work On project.
Project Notes
Brainstorming:
Decide we want to do installation piece in Rowe on the legalization of marijuana.
Need to get pros and cons of legalization.
Maybe do a 50’s style Reefer Madness with a modern twist.
Possibly use text in the piece.
People are close minded and need to pull back the vail
Need to get stats on marijuana compared to alcohol, cigarettes, and prescription medicine.
Pro
Medical
Alcohol/Cigarettes/Addictive Prescription Medication are all worse than pot
We could pay off the National debt quicker and more efficient
Is being a little paranoid really that bad?
Con
Illegal
Mind Changing
Lack of Motivation
Gateway to other drugs
Can’t tax it or control it
Your influence makes you choose which side you want to be on.
Our thoughts- The masses don’t know the true overall average effects
Everything else vs. Marijuana
Alcohol
Cigarettes
Crack/Cocaine
Meth
Prescription pills
Caffeine
Ecstasy
Legal Substances vs. Marijuana
pills
alcohol
cigarettes
cigars
caffeine
Need to get stats on marijuana compared to alcohol, cigarettes, and prescription medicine.
Stats on Rehab for addictive medicine and alcohol
Money spent on all three.
Alcohol kills this many/ Cigarettes kill this many/ Pot contributes some but need to out weigh the good and bad qualities and overall more beneficial
Imagine a doctor in a dark alley pushin the pain medicine.
Us as a group need to show our opinion and action
Marijuana Policy Project www.mpp.org
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
Why does it matter when I am chilling in my own personal paid for space not hurting anybody.
We know we want to use two globes the good earth and trashy earth.
Using installation
Need to collect trash to add to piece.
Need branches, leaves, hemp to show opposite
Either have the globes on same axis or diagonal from each other.
One earth will be pretty, lush, and healthy, airy
One earth will be trashy, wilted, dirty, covered

Daily Notes 10/21/09
Today in class we looked at the artist James Nachtwey at www.jamesnachtwey.com
His first encounter with photographs were from the Vietnam war as a child and that started it all.
Whose decision is it to have violent/government/war photos out in the public?
He shows images of war, human struggle, the suffering, and industrial pollution.
He is a very simple and organized man, is known to be very cleanly.
No time for a relationship. Committed life to his work and how could he have relationship when _no one could relate.
Some of the pieces I that left an impression in my mind:
Young Men Rite of Passage
Somalia Famine Victims
Prisoner of a Chain Gang
-important to have pictures including United States so we can relate to other images.
Indonesia- Homeless Washes children
He studied art history and political science.
Vietnam made him want to be photo journalist.
Art is gritty-How would you go about showing this? What if physical location for images being _displayed wasn't welcoming? What if the location of shoot had actual guns slinging bullets __everywhere?
I don't know how he can be there witnessing all these horrible things and how has he still made _out alive?
