Guy Sherwin 'Man With Mirror'
10:14
was doing research into film/video and found this. Guy Sherwin is an artist who works with video.
wish i thought of this for my project because it's relatively simple and easy to do, but really interesting and thought-provoking.
it's confusing at first, but makes sense after you know that it's an interplay between a video of man with mirror, and projection of image onto man with mirror.
other things i discovered:
Marcel Duchamp made a film in 1926!
Doll Face - a sufficiently creepy and blunt film about trying to match up to idealized versions of beauty.
Craig Ferguson knows a lot of stuff. and Stephen Fry is brilliant, but that's already well established.
