Okay so while making myself a study guide I have discovered I was in fact missing one of my blog entries. This is the one I wrote that disappeared on I think. Luckily it only requires a brief answer.
According to Brandon Joseph, what effects did the Exploding Plastic Inevitable have on spectators? How is this similar or different from the films (such as Vinyl and Mario Banana) projected individually, as we have seen them in class?
Well to put is simply the answer is overwhelmed. The audience had never seen something like it before. All these films back to back to back. It was both powerful and according to some "perverse."
I understand the desire to allow your senses to be overwhelmed, but at the same time there is something almost superfluous about it. Can you really comprehend avant-garde if you see tons of it at once. Avant-garde is in a manner so difficult that without the safe nest of a class room to talk about it afterward it becomes just images. But then sometimes that is a good thing too.
