Ed Ruscha's book "On the sunset strip" works really well with the idea that I am now creating - the strip along the back of my houses could potentially get put into a book exactly the same as Ruschas. I said that I would consider a book after I made one in class, this could be the perfect option for displaying my final series of images of the "backs of peoples gardens" for my series "Same So Different". I am happy with my idea now i just hope it turns out ok. But I also like the idea that my garage set of images could slide out next to each other like Ruscha's book below;
This book has a series and similar theme which is of 'Every Building on the Sunset Strip (1966). He has documented and displayed a panorama style type image along the whole strip, probably complied of separate images. The only text involved throughout the book is the name, title and date.
I really like the idea that mine had compared to Rusha's, it looks like mine could be placed as a strip too. It is a project that will make the viewer have to go to the ned images to see how the end of the line plays out compared to the first.
I like that my idea has fit well into the New topographics that I looked at originally and still sticks to my theme of taking images of the same thing with so every one looks different still. I could fins that my images are nothing like this series and have no interest but its worth the try to see what it will turn out like. I like that I am also using a street that I live on, which mean that the series of images will mean something to me as it will hold my house within the images.
