Music Movements

The 5 music movements i feel are the best would be Punk, Dubstep, House, Techno, and Nineties. The other music movement i would add to this is Metalcore. This genre is fairly new, derives its roots from hardcore punk and metal, it combines metal guitar work, with the screaming and singing combination created by hardcore punk. The artist i feel best represents this genre would be the band I See Stars. I See Stars combines house music, dubstep, and trap style edm with their metalcore style of music as well. Using melodic singing and hardcore screaming. This band is very unique as this style was not very big until they started it back in 2009/2010.

Performance Art

For the performance art project i noticed in the class that it can be almost anything that makes people feel out of their comfort zone. For my own i decided to do one of me hugging a pole in public and seeing how people reacted. The video shows one of the better reactions recorded as i attempted it multiple times. I thought it was humorous to put a sad sounding free track from bensound on it. I also tried to zoom in peoples reactions as it seemed interesting this time around.

Flip book

My flip book I decided to do was going to be trippy, I started off with super Mario bros intro and then had Mario's face melt in, then out. Then I turned it into an acid trip type thing. Similar to the drawing style of the TV show super jail.  I followed this theme for the rest of the book and enjoyed it throughout. This was a fun experience despite the delay I faced in the start.
