Final Project #3 - Marclay/Tinguely MashUp - Christmas At Someone Else's

This project was an interesting project for this being a digital media class but I had fun. Chohnny and I combined our two ideas. Her original idea was to have something robotic painting the vinyl, and my idea was to have an elongated abstract record player. So I think we did a pretty good job combining the two ideas. We built the middle part on top of my record player, then we added the Santa, and the speakers and then spray painted all the pieces. The Santa, depending on how wet his brush was, would push down on the record, which would slow it down and add a strange creepiness to the music. This made it feel familiar, because of the Christmas themes, but creepy and uncomfortable so it was like having Christmas at someone else's house.

Here is a picture of our project:
