The themes I explored in this assignment were metaphor, error
and imitation.  I wanted to animate a pulse: a very simple two
wave pulse. By using metaphor, the animation would engage all
the senses and our imagination. After each pulse, a word is
written. I came up with each word after watching each pulse
happen and wrote them down immediately. Each word is somehow
connected to the idea of a pulse. The goal is to be able to
derive from a simple animation a myriad of different
meanings.That is how I explored the concept of metaphor.  Error

of a given object. The animated pulse is in no way
representative of the words that describe the pulse. It is an
error to attribute the pulse to the words in the literal sense.
However this error allows your imagination to wander and makes
the pulse a much more powerful descriptive tool. The power of
metaphor, error and imitation allows you to describ
