Lecture and blog assignment

1. Describe the artist's process

Maria Elena Gonzalez transferred a simple tree from what we usually use it for as paper to creating it into a another form of art which is music and being able to have music played from it. she made bark become musical literally. she combined two ways of arts to become one.

2. What information is the artist trying to translate through this process.

I think the information the artist is trying to translate though this process is that art is everywhere. we just have to be more open minded and look at our surroundings. art is everywhere not just where you culturally think. to look where you would least think to look. and you shall find.

3. What other information is (intentionally or unintentionally) captured in the finished visual/audio work.

The other information that intentionally captured in the finished visual and audio work is a combination of something that wasn't thought of being possible. it's beautiful music coming from the trees that give us oxygen.trees are more than to be used for paper they make music.

4. Is the final outcome of the process interesting to you? Why?

The outcome of the process is interesting because it brings a natural recourse that has been used for so many other things and to be used in this way it's just beautiful to watch and listen. to bring something back to life than to kill it is extraordinary. and I wish more people would use their brains to not waste our natural recourse's and use them for useful activities.
