1.) Ordinary Horror Movie: A movie about the super boring crap everyone does (brushing teeth, showering, taking a poo, ect) but with horror movie style suspense. Flickering lights, tense violin strings, creepy shadows… all spicing up the daily chores of ordinary life. Explores mood setting, studies the mundane in a new light.
2.) Gaming Hands and Faces: Record people playing video games: get simultaneous shots of their faces, hands and the on screen action. A new look at gaming and how it affects (or doesn’t) our bodies. Problem: need three or more cameras, nobody would keep a straight face.
3.) Graffiti Penis: Record all the penis graffiti I see. The scrotum is one of the most popular images for people to scribble on walls and in books. A collection of these images would be hilarious and also something of a sad critique of our culture.
4.) Bike Cam: Strap a camera to me bike and let it record while I ride.
5.) Beautiful Decay: Create a painting out of perishable food and take a photo of it each day; the result is a slowly decaying work of art.
6.) Movie Mash up: Bring together scenes from very different movies to create a single weird narrative.
7.) Commercial fun: Splice together a bunch of commercials, looking for similarities.
8.) Movie advertisements: Create a looping film of the “sweeping aerial view” shoots that are so common in movie ads. Could also combine more clichés of movie ads for one big movie.
9.) Unfitting Music: Play unfitting music for a various clips to change the meaning.
10.) Epic Movie Ad: Create a totally epic movie advertisement for my boring ass life.
11.) Booger Sculpture: Make a sculpture out of boogers. Nasty and I would never do this but it’s an idea.
12.) Turlington Creeper: Hand out fake fliers at Turlington that say something completely bizarre. Record. How often do you get rejected?
13.) Push the Button: Create a complex sculpture where there is a button on the wall. If you push it, something different will play on a screen every time. Not sure what though.
14.) Bike beatification: Go around and paint everyone’s bike that’s hooked to a bike rack. Record. You’re a total dick for doing this.
15.) Super Market Adventures: Set up hidden cameras in wal-mart, target, and k-mart if you can find one. Leave it there for a few days. Then take it back. Ask people if they can tell the stores apart. Sort of like people of walmart, only it’s art.
16.) Sequel to “Creature”: I had more for Creature but I ran out of time and energy to do it… I could use my unused ideas in “Creature 2.”
17.) Chickens discuss the meaning of life: Back home me and my sister have two bantam hens. They live in a rabbit hutch on the back porch. They could have a deep discussion on the meaning of their pitiful, smelly existence. Kind of depressing, but also funny.
18.) Mouse Adventures: A stop motion with my computer mouse. It roams the world, and using the arrow in real life to move around windows, send things to the trash, and just click carelessly around it wrecks havoc on the world. Could also be purely a flash animation.
19.) Interview people about poop: If an artists takes a poo and calls it art, is it really art? Ask the average joe about this and watch their reactions. Then tell them people have actually made fine art out of poo. Reveal huge disconnect between contemporary art world and the real world.
20.) Make art out of poo: Just that. Use poo to make some shity art.
21.) Tree paper: Tear bark off of tress; glue it together to make an 8.5 by 11 sheet of “organic paper.” Proceed to write and draw on it. Maybe get audience to write on it.
22.) Peanut Butter: Make a sculpture or painting or stop motion or something out of peanut butter. I’m hungry.
23.) Pencil shavings: Try to draw pictures with pencil shavings instead of pencils.
24.) Game playing game: Design a video game in which you play as a person playing a video game. GAMECEPTION.
25.) Ctrl-z: Make a movie about a world in which people can undo anything they want just by pushing ctrl-z.
