I&#8217;ll post my progress from today later tonight or tomorrow. I ended up mounting it on aluminum because it created a stretching mechanism for the tapes, the panel ended up not working, it rippled after a week or so. It&#8217;s mounted on a thin aluminum sheet that curves when the tapes are stretched around it, then that&#8217;s mounted to a thin piece of plywood, this flattens the aluminum sheet out and stretches the tapes into place. I tested a lot of different materials. It&#8217;s really hard to get this tape to lie flat, it can&#8217;t be glued, and it takes on whatever texture the surface has underneath.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gaiastudio.org\/wonderwomen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/DSC05792.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2436\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gaiastudio.org\/wonderwomen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/DSC05792.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gaiastudio.org\/wonderwomen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/DSC05792.jpg 576w, https:\/\/gaiastudio.org\/wonderwomen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/DSC05792-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gaiastudio.org\/wonderwomen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/DSC05787.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2437\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gaiastudio.org\/wonderwomen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/DSC05787.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gaiastudio.org\/wonderwomen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/DSC05787.jpg 576w, https:\/\/gaiastudio.org\/wonderwomen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/DSC05787-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I am going to then mount this to two pieces of reclaimed wood. I am trying to use as many used materials as possible. I did a lot of searching, trying to figure out what materials to use. I like how the materials contrast, the organic and imperfect and then the man-made and (well the supposed-to-be) perfect.

He visited tribes and made this documentary on how they interact with cameras, recorders, etc. and talks about the art they create. \u00a0I couldn&#8217;t watch the whole thing because it cut out around the middle but am going to read the transcript sometime, if you want to check it out here it is:<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.media-generation.com\/Articles\/Transcript.pdf<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi guys, here&#8217;s my update.
