The First Time
The First Time is a video about the first-time use of technologies. The project is a mashup of first-person interviews, history bits and appropriated content from the internet; it was also my first time working with film editing. I sought to juxtapose past and current uses of technology and examine authorship and storytelling in the digital age.
Surprise & delight. The video highlights intersubjectivity between digital natives and digital immigrants — while an older man enthusiastically describes how the card disappears in a game when the timer expires, a kindergartener talks about challenges in a video game. Themes of incredulity, play and convenience emerge throughout the stories.
Let's get to know each other.
