So we did something on thursday. we had posters sharing and image bank building and making a composition of the above (collage). I felt quite miserable, to be honest.
My keywords are "Greed" and "Chaos"
I havent really thought about the project. I didn't have a concise plan of what I want to do. So for now, I would like to focus on the things happened at that moment, on the stampede itself. I made some attempts to make the crowd in the story to be animals. Animals are honest and non-materialistic. They do what they want. They live to survive. So people in the stampede , mostly, i think, wanted to survive. So I put animals and the crowd runnning around , trying to get away from danger.
Yet Joe told me to be careful with my keywords. She didnt think Chaos should be the message, i guess she was trying to say this is too easy(?) And "Greed" is very complex in meaning, it could apply to various situations. Maybe I should define it first and see if it applied to the stampede. Greed could be the desire to take something away from others. Maybe?
And then one of my friends told me to develop a more in-depth message for the project. Like she's doing "Treasure time, don't say stuffs that hurt others." Golden sayings.
I dont know. I dont like these sayings. Well I know they are good. They are useful. But how could we know what we could learnt from these or how do the victims feel? We aint them. We cant build a conclusion for them and their feelings. We are the thrid party, the observers only. We stay safe, but the victims did not . We don't know how they feel when the incident broke out. We can never express it for them.
So yah, it was still, very confusing for me to figure out things in the project. I made no progress this week.
