100 Days in the News: day fifteen project: Reading the Reader

leave a comment »

Welcome to day 15 of the 100 Days in the news project. For 85 more days I will be pulling news stories from my Google reader and making artwork about it!

Today’s inspirations are:

From Psychology Today:

Do You Pay a Procrastination Tax?

submitted By Monica Ricci on October 09, 2008 in Get It Together

From the Machinist:

and from the Wooster Collective:

Banksy Talks About The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill

As I was news reading today I caught myself making noises and faces in response to a few articles. I often laugh out loud at some of the stuff I come across or for some topics feel a sense of fatigue ripple through my body as I drudge through another world conflict report.

I thought I might try to film myself actually reading the news. While some of it is mundane I enjoy an extra look at myself as I look at information. I am always surprised by how much I express unconsciously.

total cost of materials: $0
