Approach autobotography

 

 

Create a list of things i remember people have said to me about me.

  • I have been from different country and with a different background. I have crossed social norms of what a man should be, I have high heals, lipstick in a box next to my bed. I was betrayed by my family for loving a another man, beaten by my best fried.

It is going to be a print that i will make just black text of all the things people have said to me about me

it will be embossed in to a paper. the text will be done digital and transferred in to a copper plate by using shadow gram technique. The sutobotography lies in whats not been told in the print. it will be about me about shown in a secret yet openly.

Cigarettes that heal you

Cigarettes have been one of the worlds most additive an harmful product.
People get addicted because of effects of nicotine in the blood stream. Nicotine immediately stimulates the adrenal glands to release the hormone epinephrine. This increases levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine, affects the brain pathways that control reward and pleasure.For many tobacco users, long-term brain changes induced by continued nicotine exposure result in addiction—a condition of compulsive drug seeking and use, even in the face of negative consequences.

The worst part of smoking cigarettes are the other chemicals responsible for most of the severe health consequences of tobacco use. Tobacco smoke is a complex mixture of chemicals such as carbon monoxide, tar, formaldehyde, cyanide, and ammonia—many of which are known carcinogens. Carbon monoxide increases the chance of cardiovascular diseases. Tar exposes the user to an increased risk of lung cancer, emphysema, and bronchial disorders.

For this most of the public places have band the use of tobacco like University of Maine. Some of the treatments for tobacco addiction are behavioral treatments, and replacement for the nicotine.

As a social and self hacktivism i will be creating a placebo cigarettes from green tea.
Green tea have been know to have lot of strong antioxidants that can help reduce the effect of smoking on lung cancer and to create better immune system.

The project is intend to be installed in a see though case, inside will be a real looking cigarette and information on the effects on smoking rolled up in to a long scroll. Out side the box will have “In case of Emergency” written in red. the boxes are to be hanged outside the library the union in the finales week where most people are stressed and are looking for addictions.

By having a placebo cigarettes they will have resolved their cravings and have not done any damage to the body.
