IDEA (Television) : Proposal RE-Make

Photobucket
"Don't you know we are ruled by TV?" -
Jim Morrison

Background

Probably the television idea is out to date idea to relate with technology. The reality is, television is everywhere and need. Find house without the box is rarely, every house has it. From city to suburb it’s must have thing. . Take it from the different perspective; television is a tool of spreading the idea or to create an idea. That’s bringing the concept of, what we seen in television we will take it either it good or bad. The brain has been manipulated from what we have seen of.

The term "TV addiction" is imprecise and laden with value judgments, but it captures the essence of a very real phenomenon. Psychologists and psychiatrists formally define substance dependence as a disorder characterized by criteria that include spending a great deal of time using the substance; using it more often than one intends; thinking about reducing use or making repeated unsuccessful efforts to reduce use; giving up important social, family or occupational activities to use it; and reporting withdrawal symptoms when one stops using it.

Problem Identification
Human are depending on television without chooses the content wisely. We take the content directly and grab it to digest without filter it. There are subliminal message on each of the images that show in television. Subliminal message is an agenda to provoke or to spread the message from the direct view.

Project Title
Television or Terrorvision (Working title)

Ideation & Concept
For the project, I would to show the hidden message of television (either good or bad). Would to users to be part of the installation

Aim & Objectives
01 To show how our brain have been manipulate and triggered by the images we seen.
02 Experiment with the concept of what we see in daily life from television perspective(happy, sad, real & dream)
03 To prove that we depending on television too much
04 We are the victims

Motivation
The idea of television come from the movie ‘Old Boy’. The main character has been locked up in one small place for years and being company by no one but television. He learned from what he had seen from television.

Television is like device. Imagine what if there is a secret party or society try to manipulate our minds using a device that people depends on it. Is like preaching from house to house but now is easier by using television that mostly house have it (inside).

I love to experiment with something conceptual, something that can’t be understand directly from normal eyes. Things that need our brain to figure out what the real meaning.
