Progress so Far....

Although I was gone most of this past week, I have been trying to work on my confession project. My initial thought for it was to do something more on the humorous side. Although I feel like I have many things that are serious that I could confess, I like the idea of interactive art and also, I think that there will be a lot of more serious confessions. When I was reading about Duchamp in the reader I like that he attempted to make most of his work playful and that this did not cause it to lose any meaning. My idea then was to confess my fear of popping balloons. I hate hate hate when balloons pop. I used to work in the floral department at the grocery store and so I would blow balloons up and they used to pop in my face all the time. When I was discussing my ideas with classmates someone suggested that I put balloons on all the seats so in order to sit down everybody had to pop a balloon, including myself. This seemed a little simple so I was thinking maybe I could write something on each balloon as well. I began to look up balloon art as well and there was some pretty cool stuff. There are balloon chairs that are a little more elaborate than my idea such as this:

 but then the piece wouldn't be as interactive. I also really like this piece:

 but I would need more space. Hopefully I will figure this all out quick. Although I do not particularly want to pop any balloons. This will be a growing experience for me I suppose. Or it will be the most terrifying moment of my life :O
