These animations are an interactive, animated self portrait for Han Hoogerbrugge. At first glance, many of these animations were nonsense to me. However, some make a little sense. For example, the one we watched in class of the man in the water, it has a sadistic quality to it, because it becomes a sort of game to keep him under water. You don’t quite realize that until you’ve been doing it awhile.
Another that caught my eye was one called “Angel.” The user controls a cross, which makes a man move around like a puppet. Which, in a way, could be a way to express that some people are “puppets” strung along by religious figures, I suppose.
