Video Response. 3.13

Do you think this is art?  Why or why not?
Not really because it feels like it's more of a science projects like for physics class or something. It's really cool and clever but it's not much of a visual aesthetic or anything that I personally think of art as. It doesn't provoke any emotions by looking at it except astonishment.

Does it remind you of anything?
I feel like I've seen similar videos but none of which I can recall on the top of my head. It's really clever and witty though. I feel like it's a bit of an optical illusion which is often is some artists' artworks. 

Nventfischer

Nventfischer

French surrealist photographer. He uses special techniques and styles, such as physical deformity of the objects within the photo, in order to capture desires that are unknown to the naked eye.

I like this artist because his photos are really mysterious. This is also the first time I found out about a "surrealist photographer". It's really cool how somehow the pictures are able to captures some sort of emotion, sensation, or desire in one photo.

Laurence Demaison

Laurence Demaison (b.1965, France) - Saute d’humeur (2004)

The photographic work of Laurence Demaison is exclusively constituted by self-portraits from 1993 to 2009. Since 2010 she occasionally uses mannequins or dolls. 

I like the photos of this artist because there's a mysterious feeling to the pictures. I also like the feeling of movement in them. The pictures are simple but can be interpreted or be thought on a different level.
