For the framing assignment, I made my frame out of an index card (the size of the frame was the size of an Apple charging cube. I chose to make my frame small because I wanted to get a smaller perspective of my environment. Having such a small frame, I could only use one eye to see through it, which means that I was squinting a lot. Ayana and I, walked down 22nd Chew Street, past the Farmer’s Market and into some other areas. The 30-minute walk with the frame was a new experience because I was being forced to see the world from a new view. I couldn’t see my environment in full view, but rather in bits and pieces. However, it was interesting to still be able to decipher the things in my location because of the universal usage of certain symbols; such as, the stop sign. Also, seeing my surrounding through small frame forced me to slow my pace of walking. It took much a longer to register with my surrounding because I had to adjust looking into the frame. I had to look at all corners of the frame and move my head in more degrees than normal to be able to process what I was seeing.
