Exploration, Artifacts, and the Mapping of Experience

LOUISVILLE WATERFRONT

The Louisville Waterfront is one of my favorite places to go during the summer; I absolutely love walking around the waterfront, driving down River Road, and walking across the bridge to downtown Jeffersonville to grab a drink and bite to eat. For me, the experience is a very relaxing (assuming you didn't ruin your feet with cheap sandals), summertime thing to do. Although Louisville doesn't have many street artists, it is kinda cool to see the occasional musician or artist performing on the bridge. It's also a great place for people watching!

As for my artifacts, I complied all of my media (video, photos, audio, & interview) into a short video using Premiere Pro for the footage and GarageBand for the audio. While it's definitely not perfect and could use some fine tuning, I thought this might be a good way to compile my experience in this way. The goal was to recreate the different viewpoints and things you may see or hear (ambient wind/river sound, the highway, footsteps, and the classical music that plays halfway across the bridge). It's a slow-paced, relaxing sort of vibe, so hopefully that comes through in the video.
