Yesterday, I went to a nature trail on Leslie and Sheppard and took some pictures and videos of the area. I intend to use these in my section in the blog about Wisdom. I am not quite sure what the idea will be, but I started to reflect on how knowledge is similar to a 'tree', while wisdom is similar to water. One tends to be unyielding and branching outward , while the other tends to be flowing and continually yielding to elements around it.
I am developing much more confidence in making videos and even being able to create a story around images. Somehow, I think that working with multiple media can really push a person to create a three dimensional experience for others, rather than just state something literally or discursively. I am also noticing that when I see an advertisement on television at my mom's home (as I don't own one myself), I find myself seeing how the images come together to form a total message. I think actually assembling a video oneself increases the overall appreciation for the process that happens as well as the complicated choices made when creating videos.
