Project 2 Documentation

Disney is a national and international corporation that most everyone if not everyone knows about. The goal of Disney is to make happy memories and fun experiences that are supposed to last a life time but at what cost? How much are you willing to pay for to keep those memories and to cherish those fun times? That is what I based my second project on for multimedia installation.
As someone who frequently visits Disney herself, I cant help but notice the consumerism and materialistic aspect that comes with Disney. You pay a pretty penny to get into the parks alone and if you want to associate the "magical" day you have had with an object, whether it be ears, clothing, shoes, etc... you also must once again pay. Set up as a gift shop display, the installation begs the question if the price is worth it and to what extent is the consumer brainwashed by Disney to want to buy merchandise to "treasure forever".
