Assignment 2: Repetition, Iteration, Series


For this assignment, I wish you to document one object, ideally that is from the natural world (not entirely made by humans or machines) or that reveals a relationship or interaction between humans and the natural world.


This follows on the last assignment in that once again you are collecting a series of objects. This time the objects should be variations of the same thing.

You will collect numerous examples; if it is something small and common (a leaf), I expect at least 20. If it is something big (a garden), a smaller number is appropriate.

You can “gather” with still images, video, or by other means such as making rubbings, printing, pressing.

You must gather more images than you need, and then edit. Then think of how to compose your collection- I can be:
A film
A collection shown as a grid and printed or on the web?
A series of photos that are hung together.

I will supply help with photoshop or light table or fcpx skills
I will also provide means to print your photos.

Finally, you will do research on your object, and include
