Today we discussed our major projects for the rest of the semester. DB set up a little pitching market for all the groups that had come up with an idea and we rotated around to hear about the diverse projects and then gave DB a ballot slip with who we wanted to work with. They were all fascinating and fabulous but none particularly resonated with me and on return to my table with Sandy and Alex we concluded we wanted to come up with something completely different. The word ‘cult’ was the first thing that tumbled out and we all got excited about that keyword. From that we suggested possible screen content, how the narrative may unfold, but I’ve come home and now I’m geed up for the rest of the semester!

What direction might this project go! I think we’re all highly ambitious content creators with a variety of skills and interests and this will be a total recipe for an interesting collaborative project. I’m really excited to be working with Sandy and Alex to create a deeply bizarre choose your own adventure type project with PowerPoint and iPads and crystal balls and mirrors. Below is a prime example of the kind of early 2000’s occult/astrological vibes.
