site specific dream 2

Borna and I were in some sort of museum at a kiosk that featured the works of Jeff Sisson. It was a large screen w/ mouse interaction, containing a collection of Rock Band-esque band/karaoke projects, also one Photoshop filter style manipulation of faces that could be rotated, swirled, etc. and would transform into other faces as they did so.

Then we came upon a “cookie making” piece, that had the background of a dough-colored surface, and one could click on various spices and sprinkle them on, add other ingredients – this had been the piece that Jeff had “gotten famous for,” we knew.

Jeff came by and said “oh have you checked out the camera function? thats what really makes this piece good.” I clicked the camera icon and nothing happened – Jeff realized the machine must be broken, and reached down under to dislodge something that was stuck. The bottom of the kiosk had a small drawer that was jammed with cookies that were “printed out” based on the image you had made on the screen, but they had gotten stuck. He pulled a few and then handed me mine. There was a condom on it.

    Bennett, I sincerely want to live up to the caliber of my work in your dreams

    points of synergy:

    • Kai’s Power Goo
    • The fact that I made a batch of cookies last night
    • Not sure if you played the game Zoombini’s, but the pizza-making mini game:

    dude this is crazy.

    the snackfax – yes I know chris and I saw that project at ITP so that must have slipped in there somewhere.

    Dude jeff, the synergy points are amazing here, Both Kai’s and Zoombini’s I played in my early teens but would never have been able to pull from my memory morass.

    Next dream I’m gonna try to meet with you guys and make a dubhap post.
