This week in Cyberpedagogy, we presented a "Photobet" activity we had done in pairs.
The assignment was to find the letters of the alphabet in our everyday environments (Read: Pay attention and look out for the unexpected), take pictures, and then compose them together using Photoshop (though, there was not much if at all image manipulation).
We were not allowed to "set up" letters.
We had to find them naturally.
My partner and I both traveled to our respective "hometowns" this weekend so we were able to bring pieces of home together in once place. After both returned to Chicago, we came together to find letters we had not yet captured.
I guess you really can bring home with you.
Below, you can see our Photobet. However, images are not in alphabetical order.
What one person identifies as a "B" another might identify as a "Z" or "E."
I would certainly do this exercise again.
i really enjoyed your composition, lisa. it was lots of fun and i appreciated the different viewing perspectives that folks in class brought to it, not knowing which letters where which.
ReplyDeleteinteresting point about the lack of manipulation. i'll have to change up the project in the future to require more photoshop work.
