You have a few cups of whatever they're offering at this party (it's blue--so you think maybe it's some form of blue-raspberry Bacardi, which also reminds you of the one time you blacked out freshmen year) and then a shot or two of fireball whiskey. You roll your eyes and think "good combo"and wonder about the hangover you'll have tomorrow only to realize, "hey, it's TONIGHT." There are so many people around and ...all bets are off!
WHAT DO THE EXCHANGES YOU HAVE WITH OTHERS LOOK LIKE? What is the interaction that takes place between multiple individuals in a social setting that involves alcohol? How does this change when people know they are being watched (either on film or by others around)?
I plan to use this project to recreate this type of social interaction ON CAMERA. I am by no means making fun of, or critiquing this social exchange (that's not the plan) as I have willingly and lovingly participated in the college-drinking-party-socialization-scene. I wonder however, what would it look like to invite people to "be art" and encourage the campus to party on camera. (Of course, I will state on some sign what this is being used for and encourage people to engage as they "normally" would.)
