APD Week 1 - Play and Self

Theme:

Play and Self

Context:

When exploring this week’s theme I considered aspects of myself that I often forget which is my middle name : Cherotich.

I created an interactive digital art piece that combines sound and art

I then took recordings of myself saying my name and then created the meaning of the word

I tried to combine these two ideas because I wanted to immortalize the meaning of my name and to embrace it

Response:

I created a QR Code embedded with my artwork that was made from a soundwave and also an audio that reflected the meaning of my name

Reflection:

I recorded different versions of my name and got the shape of the sound wave.

I was looking at Amrati Sethi's work that focuses on voice note art as a medium to connect people with her art
