Thai's documentation and post-analysis on: All in Your Head

First set of personal questions for the outsider participant...

One of my classmate, who approch my installation and try to inspect the space, which seem to be ambiguous and dark...

According to the rule an direction, she start to write some of her thoughts on the wall...

On the other side, people are trying to inspect and interpret the meaning of these word according to their own judgment and understanding, without her noticing it...

On to the second half of the program...

While the people on the outside try to inspect the holes on the wall the participant within the exhibiton room write they thought and idea toward that person according to their action...

Even doodle some picture is possible if the participant would like to do so...

Overall oberservation

From the overall oberservation, the technique and the method of the execution method work pretty well, which create enoughe sense of ambiguity for people to be curious enough to enter and inspect the space.  The lighting was at it optimum state, which result in a perfect one-way mirror as I have expected--only one side of the glass wall is possible to see through, while the other side could see only their reflection in the mirror.

Eventhough the technique and the effect work perfectly fine, there still lot of problem within the installation. Firstly, there are too many set of rule, which some of them are too strict and unclear, which result in the time the audience took to understand the procedural of the installation and their willingness to participate within the installation--which I wish to achive; however, unsuccess. Therefore, the reaction of most of the audience seem to be confuse with the installation and almost impossible to interact with the installation unless the procedure was explained to them by the artists. Also some of the relationship between the first an second program are to abstract to understand and their relation seem to be unconnect at all. However, they seem to enjoy the freedom of how they would like to express their thought, either by writing or drawing.

In conclusion, the technique and the site context are interesting enough; however, there are alot more to be imporve on the sequence and program of the installation.
