Flesh and Metal Review

After reading the Article, I kind of have a sense of openness and a high iimagination. In the reading she talks about the body being an abstract concept that changes as culture changes. I find this true but to an extent because years and decades past we tend to adapt or change  to fit in the norm. Cultures change and people also change with them such as their behavior and mindset. Their bodies don't change unless it was a forced change. She also said that skin is not thedestinction for theend of the body and something about mind body. I took this as like how she looks at life and the world as one and to have a different perception of what's reaity or what is imagination

Project 1: Chance & Indeterminacy

• Draw and color on a 8x11 inch sheet of printing piece of paper for 15 - 20 mins.
• Choose four colors (blue, green, orange, and black) written on a slip of paper and put it in a hat
• Make other slips of paper that says corner to corner, side to side, and top to bottom and you also put in a hat 
• Flip a coin and decide if you have to draw a line or a shape. Heads for a line and tails for a shape. The thickness of the line or the size of the shape is up to a friend or stranger as long as it follows the guidelines of where is supposed to go.

Outcome of procedure
