"She Said, vol.7: Suspicious Super Bowl"
digital, 49 seconds, 2008
What happens when the woman you are with seems intent on giving you mixed messages? A moment when you realized that she not only doesn't know you or your interests, whether that is football, hockey, baseball, or ringette, but also that she has agendas that you cannot even guess at. Would life be better if you could stay home every night unquestioned, watching the Super Bowl, the Stanley Cup, or the World Series? This one is funny to me because it suggests that I might be interested in sports when that couldn't be further from the truth. The image is from an Arkansas versus Mississippi (Ole Miss) game with Casey Dick throwing to London Crawford. I found it on Youtube and simply videotaped it off of the monitor and slowed it down in editing. I wanted a slow but somewhat clumsy looking catch to be metaphor for the interchange between the characters.
