Multianxia




This is my final project for the A399 The Artist and New Media class. Initially, I chose the topic of Anxiety and the medium of Cinemagraphy for my study. After further investigation and consultation, I proposed a study of physiological manifestations of Anxiety and a series of Cinemagraphs. Through various trials and errors, I found that physiological manifestations of Anxiety do not lend themselves to the Cinemagraphic medium; the changes in the "filmed body" were consistently too great to function as a Cinemagraph and the represented concepts were also vague at best. The final form of this project ended with the creation of a series of four Cinemagraphs (and this short composite film) that capture physical manifestaion of specific Anxieties that many people may suffer from. Below are the indiviual Cinemagraphs:

Acidohormeanxia - Anxiety brought on by acid shock
Belonetrypanoanxia - Anxiety brought on by needle injection
Coulrofoniasoanxia - Anxiety brought on by killer clowns
Ochotraumatoanxia - Anxiety brought on by vehicular accidents
