Teeth Trouble (reasearch/proposal brainstorm)

Questions I asked to myself:
What does digital X-Ray do?
When you think of digital x-ray what else comes to mind?
- dentist
o cavity
o plaque
o root canal
o floss
o drill
o toothpaste/toothbrust
o gargle
o filling
- showing things unseen to the naked eye
- show bad things happening to teeth so dentist can fix it
- panoramic digital x-ray


concept
- a “digital x-ray” machine that shows 30+ a cavity (negative) of the world.
o Why 30+? That is how many teeth in an average person’s mouth
- Tooth trouble = digital x-ray which shows the hidden cavities of the world.


execution in gallery → video installation
- picture of panoramic digital x-ray of teeth (30+ teeth) → each tooth have a trigger where if the audience touch the trigger it shows a 1 minute of a cavity (negative) in the world.
- When nothing is triggered
o Video: picture of people around the world….normal people
o Audio: play all of the audios all at once.

Visual video methodology
- 30 negative (the cavity of the world)
o drugs
o poverty
o negative events
o killing → guns, murders
o etc….

Audio methodology
- raw footage
- interviews
o question:
• what was your most horrible life experience?
• Did anything happened to you or a family/friend which you feel was horrible?
• Tell of a very bad dream
