What would YOU do if you were the center of everything for a day? This comes from our good friend Kelly Zen-Yie Tsai, who's been working her butt off on this 360 degree interactive spoken word video for her poem #SelfCentered. And it is awesome. Press play, and use your cursor to click and swipe left or right 360 around the video for the full effect:
One of the goals of #SelfCentered is to use new technology to enhance the poem's central metaphor. You, the viewer, are placed in the center of the interactive experience, while Kelly playfully explores via spoken word who is and isn't in the center of mainstream American culture and what would happen if the tables were turned.
Kelly is asking folks to tweet her at @yellowgurlpoet and let her know -- using hashtag #SelfCentered -- what would you do if you were the center of everything for a day?
Great stuff, as usual. For more information and updates on Kelly Zen-Yie Tsai and her work, check out her website, follow her on Twitter and subscribe to her YouTube channel.
