Day 42: PERSONAL SPACE?

Three more personal space ideas:

One: Sea Monster: One idea I had was to make a card board cut out of sea monster, strap it to a surfboard, and paddle it across the lagoon around mid day when many people are eating on the outdoor seating area outside of the university center that overlooks the lagoon. I think if this is done properly, it would provoke some pretty funny reactions from the lunchtime spectators.

Two: Raccoon and hunter: For this idea, Danger Dane and I were thinking of collaborating in the portrayal of a raccoon hunt on campus. As residents of the dorms, we are witness to nightly raccoon scavenges, and fights. The raccoons have become both a menacing symbol of nighttime, as well as a staple to out dorm experience. Because of this, raccoons have found ways to permeate into the majority of our jokes / stories...so why not create a raccoon story for all those who don't have the privilege to see them like we do. One of us would "dress" like a raccoon, the other like a hunter with a big net, and chase each other around campus. I picture dane as the raccoon.

Three: Chicken Bone Monster: following the theme of Lagoon monsters, me and Danger dane (another collaboration idea) were thinking about staging what would seem like a scene straight out of an cheesily scary horror movie. We wanted to pile up a bunch of chicken bones (i guess we'd save the bones every time we eat chicken) into a path, leading from the path next to the lagoon, into the bushes, We would then be hiding behind the bushes with many different props to make gruesome, frightening, monstrous sounds. the combination of these sounds and the presence of bones, we hope, would catch peoples attention, and condition a "wierded out" response. I think, to take this project to the next level, we should post flyers around campus about the presence of a lagoon monster this spring, and to "Beware". This would for sure crank up the student interest level.
