Life’s Little Suckers: The Project + The Process
it’s the magic recipe to making people talk about uncomfor table ques tions
THIS IS WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT Death, reincarnation, personal identity, time, religion, and family values among other things. We didn’t know we were interested in exploring any of these topics till this assignment pulled it out of us. And of course, the best things are born out of a good conversation.
PUTTING IT TOGETHER. This was the most challenging part of the collaboration. What do we do with all of these things we made? I put on my Sherlock hat and decided to look figure out how all of these pieces of this little puzzle could come together.
THE ANSWER WAS CANDY, DUH. After banging my head against my desk for a couple weeks, I found myself writing humorous little headlines about some serious subjects. Mix it with candy and it couldn’t get any more appealing.
