Endurance Piece



























































For my piece I decided to meditate outside while i was blind folded. The reason for the blind fold was so I could experience what it felt like to be a blind person. For me it felt so weird not being able to see, all i could do was hear what was around me. I could hear people talking, screaming, music,birds, and cars driving by.

Critcal Analysis of Sarah Kernan

I decided to evaluate Sarah Kernan's endurance piece. For her piece she decided to sit in a box in her common room of her dorm building for the three hours. I feel like this would be categorized as facing a fear. It would fit under that category because if I was sitting in a closed box for three hours I would start to feel claustrophobic.

Sarah's box was big enough to fit her whole body but I assume she was sitting in a crouch like position because the box wasn't that wide and she has long legs. You could not see her at all. In front of the box there was a little peek hole that she could open and peer out of to see what was going on outside the box.

While I viewed her piece, at some points I was tempted to shake the box or tap it or something, just to see if she would react to it. But over all I enjoyed it because it was interesting and different.

3 hour Indurance Piece

I, Holly Pasquarella, will attempt to meditate for 3 hours while blind folded. I will be preforming this Friday April 23, on the hill in front of Riemer. By doing this piece, I will learn what it feels like to be a person who has no vision, and only able to hear what is around me.

Automata: Just Keep Swimming



For this project, I decided to make a dolphin jumping in the waves because I want something that would either go up and down or side to side. After making the gear, it ended up going both ways. And a dolphin popped into my head when i was messing around with the gear. I think its really cool when it is moving because it really looks like the dolphin is jumping out of the waves and back in.

Recording Time



Within 24 hours, I recorded time by how many drinks I drank throughout the day. I arranged them by orded of which i drank them. I thought it was interesting because i never realized how much I actually drank within a day.
