When someone looks at this picture they might think that it is conveying some sort of negative tone because of the darkness and chaotic nature of the overlaying layers. I however believe this to be a positive interpretation of the vinyl record. The overlay of toned down images creates a sense of motion much like the rotation of a record. This motion however is more chaotic, random, and maybe free. The image located inside this frame created by the images of the records is obviously the inner workings of our auditory senses, the ear. With the addition of the ear photo the images of the record begin to change into that of sound waves drawing closer to the center that is the ear canal. There is nothing really negative about this postcard I see it more as a subtle positive view on the phenomena that occurs while listening to music or especially your favorite record.
When I was talking to Jamie for critique of this piece, she said that the original postcard did not necessarily represent a negative or positive tone of the record but perhaps a mood or moodiness. I then decided that it was not a negative or positive tone that I wanted to create but a mood. The layers are suppose to further enhance the concept that Justin created of a record in motion. It also was a way that music, or the sense of listening, could be conveyed in a visual sense. Because the original postcard was so abstract I decided to abstract the piece further creating a space within this postcard. The ear diagram was suppose to reference the sense of listening and to bring some concrete visualization of the record and how you listen to a record.
