A Lofi Looking Self Portrait

“produce/generate individual and original media components that might contribute to a creative self-portrait.”

“demonstrating poetic, playful and abstracted ways of representing the self and the self in contexts”

Text: With LO-FI in mind i decided to tackle the subject matter in a harsh light to make it look as unprofessional and stupid as possible. Ive structured it so its a self-portrait of a ‘day in the life of’ just so its not a bunch of randomly taken pictures as well to add “poetics” to the assignment.

Id start my day inside my room sleeping:

then i leave my room and wake up

 

i then brush my teeth with my personal toothbrush

catch the train and occasionally bump into an old friend

 

during my uni break i like to eat food but its not usually hungryjacks

and if ive got a long break i might explore the city a bit more (pre-production B&W grading)

Sometimes i duck into galleries like the current one at RMIT

Upon finishing at Uni id catch the train home or to somewhere else. On this train ride home someone had left behind their sourdough.

I might even go to a friends house instead of home.

but then ill most likely end up going home where ill slide the door lock on

Then ill cook dinner if i hadn’t already eaten (this is poppy)

then maybe id relax with the sounds of Zamfirs panflute on low as the whole house would be sleeping (i cant play the pipes and the organs been broken for a year)
