Paul Kaiser and Shelley Eshkar created a work that is called Pedestrian. The onlookers is looking down at a crowd of people as if hundreds of feet in the sky. The miniature people walk around in different directions and even open up umbrellas if there is rain. The way Kaiser and Eshkar are able to arrange these movements is by putting movement suits on eight people and recording the way the human body reacts and the way it moves. The project explores how people act in crowds, whether the movement of the crowd effects the movement of the individual and so on. I found this project to be very peculiar because I have never thought to look at something like this in such a way as to find patterns. I think it is neat how they use the suits because it is the same process as many of my favorite video games are made.
