ICAM 120 class project - http://www.oddition.com
James Lin, Christina Lee and Mike Rossmassler
Oddition is a 3D environment in which odd characters are practicing for roles in video games. The environment is non-interactive though, so viewers can only watch as the video game rejects go through regular video game animations outside the context of their respective video games.

In the same way that ironical Pop Art came down with both feet onto humorless Abstract Expressionism, the Gaming Response Research Faction's game creation & presentation is our modest antidote to the glazed expectations of a game-savvy audience (which we can assume any group of 18-24 year-olds to be). We incorporate a terminology completely familiar to them, and yet give them precisely nothing of what they are expecting.

Christina Kelly

An adaptation of the short story "Excursion in the Forest" by Franz Kafka, using stop-motion animation.

Patrick Ryan
Sublime Reality
My project is a musical piece, done in surround sound, that evokes the sublime realization. The project brings the listener into a surreal environment of a forest, which leads to destruction, sorrow, and realization of most forests of the present day. The project is constructed of four movements and the entire run time is 25 minutes.

Michael Dantzig
Enivrez-Vous!
A tape piece
Poetry and wine - no less than revolution - are 'utopian' expressions of human desire; they are all forms of revolt against the limitations and miseries of the Real, challenges issued by the human imagination to 'un monde o— l'action n'est pas la soeur du rˆve'. Wine, poetry, and the collective action of the crowd all generate a particular form of 'ivresse' that negates things as they are and awakens the vision of a Promised Land in which all human longings would at last be satisfied. (R.D.E. Burton, Baudelaire and the Second Republic: Writing and Revolution).

And mabye others…
