Senior Project Plan

As it stands, I've got two pretty solid options for my senior project. On one hand, I would really like to work by myself on this assignment because it is not something that I get to do very often, and on large scale exploits I tend to enjoy some isolation. However, this might not be feasible due to Margaret's modest collection of computers, and I might have to team up with Wyatt Watt. This wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing, it would just yield a substantially different product.

If I was flying solo, I think that I would create a hybrid ambient music video/documentary. Many ambient or electronic songs sample dialogue, and I figure that I can craft a natural sounding track that works seamlessly with recorded interviews that focus on a currently undetermined environmental topic. If I were to record conversations with people of varying environmental evolvement and play that audio alongside a beat and harmony of my very own, I think that the end result could be very nice. A stylized video component would also drive the point home. Realistically, I like this idea, but I think that it is trying so hard to satisfy both classes that falls short in both.

The group project on the other hand, is more focused on urban input. Wyatt had the idea of compiling gritty interviews with downtowns finest hoodlums and homeless, to see if we could answer a reoccurring question this year: "Is environmentalism a luxury".
