You are to create a work in video that portrays 'A Day in the Life.' This may be a day in the life of anything - a whole city, campus, or building, a plot of grass, an individual, an animal, anything.

Consider how your choice of shots, as well as how you edit the shots, portrays what makes one part of a day different from another - which parts of the day seem longer, which seem shorter, or fly by incomprehensibly? Use what you learned about rhythm and duration in the first project to create contrasting passages of time. At the end of a day (or of your film) what stands out from the day? What kinds of images recurred more frequently, and what images might seem to be missing?

Choose an existing text, and create a "reading" of it through video/image, sound, and graphical type. You may use sounds from any source you like, but use video solely from found or pre-recorded VHS or DVD sources.

You may do as much or as little editing as you like.

Your work should possess images or video, sound and type at all times, in simultaneity. Consider the construction of your piece as a 3-layered project - sound, image and type.

Your images should establish specific and intentional relationships to the words and sounds, and may include pictures of text or found words.

You are to create a very short video (no sound) that demonstrates an inventory approach to editing. We will install these videos for a few months as part of the information infrastructure of the new Siebel Center for Computer Science. They will play intermittently, at random, on the information panels that are spread throughout the building.

The goal of the project is to use metaphorical editing to provide the building's inhabitants with new ways of seeing familiar spaces, surfaces, and objects.
