Failure

I would say that my biggest failure this semester, so far (we'll see how my final project turns out), is definitely Micro Project 3. There are many reasons that contributed to my pethetic attempt at art making during this project. I'm not sure which could be the main reason, but I suspect that it was my lack of creativity with the prompt. I had no final image in my head and I just decided to make it as I went, spontaneous if you will. But honestly I am the type of person that has to have a plan. I plan everything out, I like structure, and without it I tend to stray from what I am fully capable of accomplishing. So this project reinforced my need for structure. I also learned that I look like a completely douchey brand whore (thanks Jacque). It just doesn't represent me at all. It was quite disappointing. This is also the one project that I would redo. I need to spend some more time on the self reflection aspect of the project and really think about what defines me as a person.

My biggest success this year would have to be my video for MP 5. Not that it was technically elaborate but I really enjoy constructing the project.
