Changes about my initial proposal

Finally I decided to change my proposal, because I had a lot of the troubles to managed and carry on with my initial idea. I saw myself basically involved in the most physical construction part to the whole idea, and at the same time the economic issue seemed quite complicate to be affordable for me.


Following with the same issues that I wanted express in my other proposal, I would like to explore the topic that both sexes (female/male) are analyzed through different performances by the way of ordinary actions that the persons uses in everyday life. I would like to divide in 4 to 5 examples, those will be the performance of sitting, standing, walking and dancing.

The project will consist of creating a multimedia program that shows to the audience a graphical/motion poll, they will be asked to decide which of the performances best represents the relative gender.
The making of the piece will require a male model and a female model;the model will in turn perform these actions. The user will choose one clip from a series of 3-4 per action.
The best will be project in the wall the image that users can watch by the computer, for best resolution and quality image.
I feel through this experiment I can show how the sex can adopt different possibilities that can be seen outside of the regular existence of male / female gender. We need to reconstruct the way our brains see and relate to gender to allow these possibilities to exist as part of a normal society.

I will make the audience think that are two models (female and male) but in actuality both roles will be performed by one woman, this model has already knowledge about such things as drag king performance and
we will work and practice the action to perform the male part to achieve believability.
