Gravity Week 2 - Sophie Mollins

Lecture Notes:

Interactive Media Art, makes websites using images with links to various interactive content. Links form a 'maze' around the website giving the viewer/user an explorative sensation providing a personal   experience to the narrative of the work.

Meadow Arts commissioned her to create a piece of work about a gold antique figurine depicting a monkey chained to a harp while playing it.

Photographed mothers belongings after she died making an archive of her personal items; shoes, frying pans etc.
Developed an interest in the laces on her mothers shoes.
Again used the website form to generated an interactive archive of items
   - Interactive maze/ map/ story/ narrative.
Website called 'Don't forget about the monkeys'.
Photographed and documented
   - Lead onto Meadow Arts commission.
   - Similar kind of website for commission.

Idea of objects appeals to her. Being with an object made by our ancestors a long time ago really appealed to her.
