EXERCISE: TRACKING THE BODY
3-5 minute video.
For this experiment, you will be turning the camera on yourself for the first time in this class.
Use the medium of video to:
a) observe a particular embodied behavior of yours which you don’t entirely understand and about which you want to know more… e.g. a tic, a nervous habit, a particular physical protocol, a repetitive maneuver…
b) document an attempt to get yourself into a particular mental state through bodily effort or exertion.
