... the other ones, well, they are... not lucky.
So, uni is up and running. Things are not going according to plans, but i knew that was going to be the case, so i tried to make as few as possible. My schedule decided play a trick on me as late as today, so now i have to try to come up with a solution. I don't want to let go of my Human Geography class, but it looks like i have to. Sure, that ain't too bad seeing that that means my friday will be free, but i much rather go to a afternoon session on wednesdays or tuesdays. Will see how this will get solved.
On mondays there are to wonderful classes: In the morning it's History of Modern Art, and in the afternoon it's Scenography.
The Scenography teacher is quite a persona. Either you love him or you hate him. Quite a few of my fellow students seem to do the later, i'm the opposite. He is one of those people who can be an utter and complete bastard, but I find it amusing watching the reaction he manages to get out of people. They whisper and roll their eyes when he's far away, but as soon as he gets close you can see them tremble with fear over what he's going to do next. Will he ask them a question that puts them in their place, or will he press an opinion out of them.
I'm rather use to these sort of professors, so I take him with a gran of salt and try to squeeze as much information and knowledge out of him as possible.
For this semester we are changing the entire school into a theater. The 30th of may there will be an inauguration of a play that we still know nothing about, the only thing we have is a title (Sans Papier) and the rules that everything has to be made out of paper.
So, last monday all of us had to have a concept and a model of this concept ready to be judged.
The model i brought to the table was built from the concept that refugees has gone through so much suffering that they are locked in both within themselves, in their mind and in their soul. This is represented with 3 sets of cages, on inside the other. To represent people, both those with papers (the ones who are free to fly) and those without, there will be folded origami cranes.
Here are some pics of who the model looks so far. Imagine more cranes and 1 more cage (i ran out of glue...). I believe that in real life this will have quite an impact even without music, but music it will hopefully blow your mind.
Let's just hope my project get chosen to be part of the theater. Can't wait to see it realized in 1:1. It's going to take hell of a lot of time for folding, but that is what movies are for, no! ^-^
