The task of using Play as motive for this class is still strange to me, but using the mindmap technique Matt gave us was really helpful for me in that I didn't feel overwhelmed by the broad scope of both Play and of Time.
I first liked the idea of a Loop, and I was listening to some soft electronic music when I came up with an image of a head or face rolling around. In creating this loop, I learned that I could take frames of the loop and reverse them. On top of that, I could Select multiple frames all at once and Transform them. This led into an exploration of Repetition within the Loop.
Finally, I started duplicating layers of each face to create this Lagging effect, like the face was getting a bit left behind. I am really enjoying creating psychedelic and warped effects with really simple tools like this, and I think I will look into stretching these out more over the week
