Dreamland - Visual Research (2010)
Dreamland from Shaun Madden on Vimeo.
I'm not sure if I ever linked to this before. Sound is not synchronised too well and volume needs to be loud to hear the opening words and also the heart-beats near the end. However the song is then too loud! Quite a lot of work at the time...
Dreamland
It was very interesting to watch this video for the first time since I created it nine months ago. I could only remember some parts of it, however on watching the scenes—the memories of the dreams and nightmares I had as a child came rushing back. Can it possibly mean anything to anyone else, whose dreams were different to mine? I very much doubt it...

Harinezumi Camera First Photographs
These photographs are straight out of the camera using either the colour or B&W mode.
Digital Harinezumi 2 by Superheadz
My new Lo-Fi 'Zumi" movie and still camera. Looking forward to using this for my Dreamland project for Visual Research.

Harinezumi Camera
Digital Harinezumi: Lo-fi coolness! USA Video Blog from Some Like It Shot on Vimeo.
"Creating warm, dreamy and surprising videos, the tiny Harinezumi camera by Superheadz was inspired by the Super 8mm silent film of the '60s and can take two hours of footage (without sound), whilst being compact enough to carry with you just about anywhere. Don't feel like filming? The Harinezumi also takes colour-saturated, dreamy still photos." - Urban Outfitters
Hard to find in the UK at the moment and expensive to ship from the US but this camera is what I am looking at for the Dreamland Visual Research project and could also be used in Photography in Context for the next project.

Visual Research
- What is a 'found image'? - Photo of a photo, photo of road sign, photo of a tyre track
- Complex issue
- Influences - has everything been done already?
- Appropriate the change - image becomes something else
- Andy Warhol - Coca Cola - What did I see in this image?
- Mass-produced, uniformity, everywhere, shelving
- Common answers but in the Coca Cola image the bottles are different!
- Andy Warhol - Elvis - appropriate, Elvis has become a product
- Jeff Koons - Rabbit - pop life, reflections so that looking at art is part of artwork
- Also attitude and where the art is form part of the artwork
- Collage - Image A + Image B = Image C (not Image AB)
- Tom Wesselmann - Still Life No.30 (1963)
- A lot of art provokes issues without giving answers
Picturing Identity: Tanner, Bearden & Basquiat
- how to develop ideas
- what is the creative process
- relate to photography but aren't photography
- book: explore ideas, play with images, store-up ideas to be developed
Self & Identity
- developing ideas
- journey
- to help photography
- visual research book
- explore ideas for myself
- valuing process & research (what's in the sketchbook)
- have your own ideas generator, edgier stuff, not portfolio, not critical journal
- look at other artists work
- rather than portrait of self; what's there, how about what isn't there?
- other ways to remove objects
