RECREATE

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

This idea came into shape in combination with my own project research, lesson material and the project The 'Hotel Room' By Sophie Calle. In this project she visits hotel rooms back when she was a maid for a hotel, and tries to get to know the people of the room, without ever seeing them or actually meeting them. Based upon their possessions and the atmosphere of the room she creates characters.

I think that today, we all do this constantly, when surfing the web especially. We see information about a person, but not the whole picture. Based on this information we make an image of that person in our head, we create the context ourselves. I want to create a platform on which I post footage, images and text that is available about me through my iphone, webcam and all the basic information that is already on the internet about me. I give teasers of this information, never showing everything, only little pieces. The audience has to piece together their own version or story of who I am or what I did during which day. This is only the start of a bigger thing of course. Immediately questions arise that I have to find an answer to, why would people find this interesting, and what do I want to achieve exactly?
