This is my first time ever doing a blog, with that said compared to the Hegirascope, I thought that this was a vast improvement. I enjoyed how the story is told with some interaction from the audience. The minute I turned into the webpage the first thing that drew to my attention was the stark contrast of the black and white. Its so fuzzy that you can not make out the features of the couple. It could be anyone. In the first frame it shows the couple and a window. You can see that the couple aren’t close, it seems as if there is physical as well as emotional distance between them. The window draws you in to take a glimpse into their life and find out how the story unravels, because your peeking into their life through the window your only getting glimpses and hearing certain things without knowing the complete story. Therefore your left to come up with your own conclusions, thats what I found most fascinating.
As your going through the story you start wondering what war was the boyfriend in??? How long was he gone??? What happened with the neighbor that has upset him so much?? There is a hint of infidelity… at the same time she say “No Never”. I felt that story left more questions than answers.
In the last frame there was the authors name and the MBCBFTW museum link. It was great seeing other peoples take on the story and all the different aspects to this one story.
