locEmotion 2: Wednesday 6.45pm




Last night I sent you all an sms for part 2 of locEmotion. It was great getting the sms's back - big variety of what people were doing and feeling. This has been really fun to do...I think I might try to build it into a visually more interesting webpage to show in the last week of class...

But also, we could possibly continue, building up narratives that crisscross the city over time...Could potentially do as a moblog- post sms from mobile direct to a blog...Anyway, more to think about. It's been great to get everyone's stories, so thanks for participating! I hope it's been fun for you as well! Now, back to Wed 6.45! Everything is listed in the order that they came back to me...


xxxx8915: I'm walking to the library. I feel tense because I have so much work to do there. My left eye is twitching, which always happens when i haven't slept enough. I'm worried it makes me look mad.

xxxx6405: I'm at the climbing centre and i'm totally pumped and ready to climb! The ledge at syd uni. Very excited!

xxxx4196: Oh how i love my wee computer. Its really the dominant feature of my room, the first thing i turn to in the morning, last thing i see at night. Which is kind of sad really. Its been filling my vision all day, but thats probably because i sit too close. I have been feeling awfully nostalgic today. Should stop listening to crash test dummies, and avoiding work, talking on msn and wondering about death and mum and school and starving and fat and mmm chicken.

xxxx6994: I'm at my mate's place in marrickville. I'm looking at a blank tv in a small but cosy living room. I'm feeling the slight disorientation of a new place combined with the comfortable familiarity of old friends.

xxxx9902: I'm at home, Concord. In bedroom for 10 snatched minutes sending sms's, but before that cooking dinner + even muffins for my daughter- very unusual! She is battling homework and on verge of a fuss... I'm feeling good, pretty happy and just a bit sneaky...

xxxx6752: In the living room talking about travelling with my gorgeous friend, feeling very content and at peace. Bellies full of food and our lives ahead of us.

xxxx9805: I’m at home physically and in germany visually and aurally. i am feeling happy, a good friend from school and I are having a webcam conversation as she is too far to see face to face. This is the next best thing. Advice, jokes and gossip across oceans, made almost instantaneous by a media once deemed loveless.

xxxx4785: Level 19, tower, german class, everyone chatting through mid-class break, we just discussed exam schedule, 2 + half wks left of 2nd yr. I feel tired and anxious.

xxxx8089: Twinkling fairylight fireplaces shrine/ new years eve 3 years before / we lay face to face on her bed without sheets / the sky outside the window was a silk screen skirt/ one hundred thousand firework sparks scattered like red diamond dust/ I cut his hair in the dark with my head to one side so it turned out assymetrical / couldn’t stop smiling when he said my name / again/ again/ his hand on my skin / everything still sparkling / and sigh

xxxx2260: I’m in tempe playing ultimate Frisbee. I see a bunch of people in red shirts ( they’re the other team). I feel frustrated ‘cause we’re losing.

xxxx3039: At home on a Wednesday night. About to go to bed. My partner is waiting. I’m feeling…
