Transforming

For my final project I plan on creating an Instagram page that has videos of me freestyling (dance) to K-pop songs that were chosen based on the random fan fiction story titles I came across on asianfanfics.com. Basically, I am making a story out of the K-pop song titles and the random story titles. But in these dance videos there is someone talking about the history of ballet in the background, so it is kind of like a mashup. I will be incorporating Anderson’s “Playing the Body Electric”, which is from Morris’s book “Introduction” to Sound States: Innovative Poetics and Acoustical Technologies (1997). Anderson’s work is about sounds and how female and male voices that are blended together can be confusing and significantly change how one feels and reacts to a certain situation (Adalaide Morris, “Introduction” to Sound States: Innovative Poetics and Acoustical Technologies (1997)). So, Morris’s essay will be seen in my instagram videos in some form. I will be playing with the audio to create a similar effect that was seen in Anderson’s work. Also, I will also be including Paul Soulellis “Search, Compile, Publish” (2013), as well as his “Chancebook” experiment. Both of these works are related to my idea of making a story out of random titles.
