I realize ultimately it would have made more sense to use a proximity sensor combined with the wave shield as furthering the concept of presence but I could not get the code to work in time for the final critique and maintained use of the pressure sensor. Using the pressure sensor and wave shield I uploaded the song Wipe Out by The Surfaris (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p13yZAjhU0M) because I have seen it used in a number of movies as a backdrop song and felt it fit in with the concept of discussing kitsch and technology through this performative beach character including Back to the Beach, Meet the Parents, Runaway Bride, and Wayne's World 2. Alongside this backdropped song I decided to do a reading of Clement Greenberg's Avant-Garde and Kitsch (http://www.sharecom.ca/greenberg/kitsch.html). I ended up using section II of his essay as my pedestal.
