Peachy's documentation and post-analysis on "SQUEEZE"

Preparing the installation




Light Observation before real installation
"Which color creep you out the most?"
Green light
Red light 
























The result is green color from 10 viewers. (green= 7 people, red= 3 people)





Documentation during the presentation

Audio track (updated from the fourth development) more spooky! more noisy!




the installation


A.Bea was going inside.



She was  inside.





You can hear the real squeezing sound (at 3-4 sec) between your body and balloons when you pass through the installation. 


Conclusion
Because of electricity problem, I decide to take off the light and get ready to present on Friday because I think SQUEEZE still performs as I want...
The participants (ajarns and friends) passed through the balloon around 10-20 sec. which what I guess and want it to be. They get fear feeling, hold the breath during get in, sigh after passing and have physical touch without denying. The balloons squeeze them inside also they squeeze balloons and make annoying noise. Unexpectedly, the balloons keep blowup by themselves without any touch. That's make them more scary and make the participants get more pressure. One of the participants loves the sound of explosion. So, he hardly squeezed on balloons and made them blasted. She is scared of the darkness and black balloons but not the balloon itself. It is pretty much successful on this installation. I get the feedback from participants as i guessed it before.
In the other hand, if the light that I have expected at first is can be used, it might be more precious to touch and get more sense of tactility? which is kind of invert to my first thought that I want it to be more spooky by lighting.





Erotic is a sensual response to something. What arouse your senses is erotic! It can be done by touching, hearing, seeing, smelling and tasting. People might have different feeling of erotic. Some might be terrified, satisfied, excited, desired, curious, confused, painful, etc. It is depended on what situation you are in. Terrifying is the intended effect of my tactile installation to demonstrate the dark side of erotism. It creeps people out by erotic. Black balloons with tiny spaces between each column create the pressure that forcing you and you can't escape from it. It's painful when you hurt the sound of rubbing balloon. When you pass through it, your touching and hearing sense is fully awaken because you can't see anything in the dark. It has 2 actions which both you squeeze balloons and balloons squeeze you.
