Below is a link to my narrative project ‘The Poet Censor’ which takes a number of Mao Zedong’s poems and alters the poems by accessing your IP address and creating parodies of his poems which show the real feelings of the people under his oppression during his reign as ruler.

Public Narcissist Installation (2nd Location)

This evening I set up my project in a second location, this location allows you to see the detail and interaction within the project a lot clearer.

Pin Lane Installation (Real)

wizzer711 — Sun, 28 Mar 2010 23:43:47 +0000

This evening I went to Pin Lane to setup my installation. This involved hiring a small generator to power a projector which is attached to a laptop which is running my application. I then projected this onto the floor in Pin Lane for people to interact with. As you can see in some images the lighting has been played with to represent the current narcissist feeling from my data.

The images below show the installation placed in Pin Lane:

Pin Lane Installation (Mock Up)

I have been along to Pin Lane and took a number of photos so that I can get an idea of where the installation is going to be placed and how it will look. I have also played with the colours to represent the current online narcissistic feel of users who have filled in my questionnaire. Aswell displaying the pond on the floor I have also played around with the idea od displaying the pond on a wall.

The images can be seen below:
