This is the final product of all my hard work please comment and tell me what you think.
This drawing shows part of the final video where work in the stream behind Cohen Studio would be preformed.
In this drawing you can see yet another action of the video were push-ups will be preformed with people pushing down upon the person making it more difficult to preform the task of simple push-ups.
In this drawing you can see how a person will be carrying two people across Main st. over his shoulders one on each side.
In this drawing you can see a person walking up the hill picking flowers and finally placing them in a container. Then proceeds to break the container once placing the flowers in the container.
In this picture you can see one of the first plan for the Focus project where I had planned to organize everyone in the foundations group. The plan was to have everyone line up were the woods start in a single file line and have everyone dig a hole that would have been one foot deep. They then would have carried the dirt from digging the hole back to Cohen stdio and put them is separate piles five inches apart. However the scale and organization of this project did not fit the allotted time to complete this project. Also the concern that not everyone would dig their hole and then carry the dirt to the location.
In this picture you can see the second plan for the Focus project where I had planned to make a video of work being preformed on the Line. This is the end product that i went with however it had been changed from the plan in this drawing. In this drawing the parts of the video were one move rocks from one side of the stream to the other with a total amount of rocks being thirty. The second part of the video was piling sticks out in the woods in a pile that was 2x2x2 and I would gather sticks from across the line to fill this area until it was filled. The third part of the video which was changed and used in the final project, was to carry people across main street from one side to the other side. It was changed to carrying two people at the same time across the road.
In this picture you can see the final plan for the Focus project where I had planned to have two people carry one person while he/she wrote about the experience about being carried for twelve feet on the line. Then the three people would rotate and repeat the process until everyone had wrote about their experience of being carried for twelve feet on the line.
In this picture you can see a rough idea of what the final plan will look like it shows a rough outline of the video in which parts and transitions were changed. You can see the rough ideas that I came up with about smashing beer cans with a frying pan and stacking rock in small piles. Which were both removed from the end video. The other were modified to come together to create the final project they are working in the stream behind Cohen Studio, pick flowers on the hill on Alfred State campus, doing push ups, and carrying people across Main st.

September 22, 2011
These are the objects that are found on the line they are a bent metal fork, a glass bottle with a white cap, a stick of a branch, small white wire with dirt on it, orange sticky notes with dirt on them, a heavy stiff metal wire with a black coating over it, a black metal frying pan, a business card for the band Hyena, and crunched up menu of Panda chinese food, a rusty metal can with a large hole in the side and the top opened half way.
Homework: Personal Territory Tour
September 15, 2011
These are the pictures of my personal territory. Which can be found in the town of Alfred, NY. The picture of the bench shows a perfect example of the location showing it in solid detail. The other images show explorations that occurred from the bench on the personal territory from observing people as they sat around me or as they walked by. An over heard conversation can be heard between two old women as one makes herself out to be better then the other one until the other one gets fed up with her. And 50 things that can be seen or noticed from this location. Finally there is the map which can guide you through a tour of my personal territory allowing you to notice things that i noticed and experience things that i also experienced in this location, the time i recommend to go to this location is about twelve o-clock when this location is most active going later or sooner can vary the results that you receive from going to my personal territory.
