7. Temperature

I took photos for all objects and a video each of the gas stove and freezer to record sound.

There were two parts in noticing and recording temperature, nature and technology.

There are appliances such as the air conditioner, gas, freezer, electronic kettle, toaster that has the function to manipulate temperature and there is nature where temperature cannot be controlled by men and is shown through sunshine, rain, snow and clouds which we refer to as weather.  In nature the main indicator for temperature would be the sun which is why i think we associate bright sunny images to higher temperature and gloomy dark images to lower. The differences i noticed in high temperature and low temperature are these

Higher temperature: Clearer definition, brighter colours, there’s some kind of glow or light (whether it is from the fire or sunlight)

Lower temperature: murky definition, dull colours (grey), cloudy, dewy/icy

I also noticed that the image and the sound of the fire or heat from the gas stove and toaster resonates danger and uneasiness whereas the image of the sunny road and the blue sky evoked warmth and happiness. The images or sound of cold objects didn’t prompt any definite feelings such as danger but all the images had a colour coordination of grey scale. I notice coldness is associated with white or cool tone colours because of the relation of water(rain)-ice(snow)-dew-frost and the colour of those are mainly clear or white.
