I chose to watch the video titled “10 bullets.” The video depicted the rules of his studio in a way to try and help his assistants and all others who visit the studio remember them.
- Work to Code
- Sacred Space
- Be on Time
- Be Thorough
- I Understand
- Sent Does Not Mean Received
- Keep a List
- Always Be Knolling
- Sacrifice to Leatherface
- Persistence
My first reaction to the second half of the video where he mentioned making lists and being thorough, was that is was ironic given the majority of the class forgot this assignment… I did however enjoy the video itself and all of the analogies he made as well as the video clips. I didn’t think this gave me a good idea of his work though so I couldn’t compare our current project to anything, but it definitely connected to how we should conduct ourselves in the studio. To see some more of his work I watched some of the clips from the “Homemade Mission to Mars.” That one was a very interesting project. I found the project itself interesting but I mostly found the viewpoints of him and his assistants very intriguing. The fact they worked with the Jet Propulsion Lab was intriguing.
