IDEA POST: 3/25/2010 Changes and Time

Since my last meeting and critique I have been trying to discover what I am going to do with this project. My focus is on time and change and it is interesting to talk about these topics but they can go on forever on different tangents.

Paul and I discussed how time goes by in different ways:
1. Most popular thought is that time is linear. This is how we all generally think of time.
2. TIme is also circular. Like how flowers bloom, die and then bloom again. Or like how ice can melt and then freeze again.

I want to bring the focus of the changes down to the idea of time.. time passing by and how time passes and things change. When a person sees the change that had occurred they wonder about the time that went by and what they missed. I think of this being similar to how sometimes when I sleep in late I wake up and realize that the sun is already high in the sky. I realize I missed half the day and wonder where the time went. For me this is all about the realization of time being wasted or missed. It is not a sad thing.. it is just a higher awareness of time.
