Stepping out

  Choosing clips for walking sequence, cutting, adding audio fading in and out, adding effects cross dissolve and diamond, adding a title, exporting to my file, uploading to youtube and putting onto blogger :D

Moving Images - An Interview with Chef Marco Pierre White


An idea for Moving Images an interview with a local Chef. Asking Specific questions (Pre talked about). In their place of work maybe (comfort). Have them cook something that's easy or fast (time).

Moving Images - Surface research - Martha Rosler

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zSA9Rm2PZA
Martha Rosler - Semiotics of the kitchen 1975
  • Black and white film looks authentic/appropriate for that era, works well I like it.
  • Narrative: The artist names utensils then demonstrates their uses or how not to use them e.g the knife, ice-pick and spoons.
  • Gender and domestic issues "A womens place is in the kitchen"
  • I feel we are now living in a society where hardly anyone knows how or wants to cook or even knows what some of the utensils would be or what they're used for. I would maybe do a positive or humorous  spin on this , it might be a good idea?

Lens and Building Images Research Artist

I am a collector of cook books and food magazines and was extremely happy to obtain this copy

For over 13 years my  whanau are lucky to go on holiday at Martins Bay and over the Christmas/holiday/summer period cooking in a caravan is a challenge for all of us on holiday :D 

Zucchini fritters everyone has a Favorite recipe

Coming Home, Welcome Home ...

Lists who doesn't have them?
Thank you Frances  Hansen :D
In the first week of starting my BCA at MIT one of my lecturers Frances Hansen said that it is a good practice to look up our other lectures Rebecca Hobbs and Taarati Taiaroa and what their art practices were so to my Food happiness I also googled Frances who had  published a cook book in 2011 and I had to have a copy and was so happy to be given a copy by the Hubby. Nostalgia is what I think when I first saw this book I excepted it to smell old and musty but it didn't. The family recipes, personal tidbits and the feel of the beautiful pages. Soups, Blackballs, Thermos and Rice pudding and bread and Butter Pudding reminded me of my Nan who took the time and patience to teach me to cook. Pom Poms (woolly ball), Flora and Jelly moulds is Mikes mum to a tee. Spice girls and lemon meringue pie (Tania makes a mean LMP) reminds me of my daughter, Pikelets are one of my Max's breakfasts.Aprons, shopping lists, soup, caravan, zucchini, scalloped potatoes, Tika, Recipes, Utensils, Cooking are me. I like how this book is like scrap books we used to have/make when we were kids layers of colour and meaning.
