Time Art: Ideas

Time is a very open topic, and the amount of ideas that come with it are endless. However choosing an idea that will mean the three screen installation will work effectively is very tricky, as well as considering what different aspects of After Effects to add to the video. 

I found this really interesting as Brian Eno talks about time in a manner of being able to 'specify a starting point' but just like the garden he mentions the ending will be unpredictable. I like the idea of movement within time as well as the fact we can't really control certain things, so maybe I could try and incorporate that in the video in someway.

This short film on moments got me really thinking that sometimes time isn't about doing just massive things, but that it should be spent in the little things that make you happy as well. It's such a simple idea but for me is massively effective. It shows different time periods in people's lives such as birth, chasing after a bus, crying and tying laces to name a few, stuff that everyone goes through in everyday life. I feel like it makes the video a lot more relatable to the audience and the viewer becomes more engaged in appreciating a more tinier, but equally important aspect of life.

When listening to some music, these songs came on and it definitely got me thinking about the aspect of Time again. I thought about how time is running out and how quickly it can move sometimes, particularly when having fun. In the grand scheme of things are life is short and over quickly...this is something I'm definitely going to consider.
