* Did anyone critique your work this week? If so, what were their impressions?
Stephen Vitello did. He thought my sound was interesting and engaging- as it pulled and eluded at his attention. The two images he wished were separated. He found the pairing good and found the tension between the two good but we agreed that subtly trying to engergizing both sides a little more might be a good thing. Drew a comparison to Bruce nauman. On the whole he brought up similar but very different concerns and most of all different reads. His sound system is better and let my soundtrack really come through.

* What was the most motivational or creative moment of the past week?
Listening to the binaural recording I made of a midnight parade on election night.
* What do you want to achieve in next week's studio practice?
Figure out all the FINAL CUT export problems and have something that looks even better….oh yeah and shot some more…..and edit….anything else? Maybe. Just feel productive.
* What did you achieve in your studio this past week?
Re shot new sequence in video successfully tried to edit based on a suggestion- jumpcuts instead of smooth transitions.

* What has been an artistic failure this week?
1.Jumpcuts didn’t work the way I feel they should with the piece.
2. Computer can’t handel all of this

* What was the most profound thought in relation to your practice this week?
Finished Election night piece.

* If there was a visiting artist this week, what is your impression of their work and process in relation to your own?
NA
