Project 1 Proposal

For this project I want to incorporate the 5 senses plus the 6th sense to show that we use our senses for more than we know. Seeing, hearing, touching, tasting, and smelling are the 5 that everyone knows about, while the 6th sense, the actual sense of knowing without knowing how you know (extrasensory perception) is one we don't consider often. Some people may not believe in this sort of thing, however, we all sometimes get that feeling of knowing when something is going to happen or knowing when someone is watching us, etc. 

I want to capture all of these senses in their different ways and meaning and combine them into each their own quadrant, for a total of 6. I want to display them almost in a pyramid scheme to show that the main 5 senses are what contribute to our 6th sense. In doing so, I am going to use boxes of different sizes and shapes to create this look. I would like to get all of the materials put together as soon as possible so that I can start practicing and assembling the video to map it out correctly for the installation.

Next, you'll want to find the 3 clear push pins that are stuck into the cork board. You're going to take the ears and place them on the push pins so that they are hanging. From left to right, it will be the all white pair, the shiny silver pair, and then the white pair with the purple bow. After that, look for the white hat and hang it off the right corner of the cork board, then find the blue hat and hang it off the left corner of the cork board. Finally, there will be an assortment of t-shirts (3), fold them up by putting in the sleeves of the shirts first, then folding the shirts in half, and then half again, laying them in front of the cork board.  Since the installation is m

I have put together what I will be projecting onto. I decided to incorporate more than just my ears, so I took one of my pin boards and pinned the ears on there to project onto. I also might bring some tshirts and other items to lay around the board.
