I was sitting in the back of the classroom watching my instructor show an animated video. I had my eyes glued to the screen, but I found myself with a vacant expression. A few minutes later, without warning, my phone in my pocket quietly vibrated in protest. It was a text from my girlfriend saying that she wanted to stay for another hour with her friends that had arrived early. Now I'm left feeling awkward and worthless with nothing to tell them about what is happening in front of them besides “nothing”... This is exactly what happened to me today when I took part in CDMA Workshop 390 Class 83 at UC Berkeley CS department on Wednesday night. This class was “Network Review” and we were asked to show the content on the screen. Nothing interesting was happening on the screen, so I decided to look at my phone to see what new message I would get. The only new message I got was from my boss saying that he was online and wanted me to send him some files as soon as possible. After I finished my work on several other projects and moved all the files into a folder on my hard drive, I started trying to find a new project that would keep me busy for a while. There just weren't any new interesting development projects that needed to be completed. So I opened up my phone to see if there were any other messages that needed to be answered. Once again, nothing new was in the inbox. As I looked around the room, I could tell that some other students were waiting for me to give them something interesting to read about on the screen. So at this point I felt uncomfortable with myself and my work. But there wasn't anything else waiting for me in the inbox except more work... Just then, my phone started vibrating again. It was another text message from my girlfriend saying that she would stay a little while longer at her friend's house and then call me later on tonight when she got home. Now I am staring at a blank screen and not knowing what to do with myself or what to tell the class about. So for the next ten minutes, I did absolutely nothing and just stared at the back of my instructor's head while he was talking... As soon as class was over, I was able to get online and reply back to my boss on the files that he wanted. Fortunately, he wasn't on his computer when I sent him a message so there was no need for him to talk back. A few minutes later another text message came in from my girlfriend saying that she still wanted to stay for another hour with her friends and would call me when she got home. So now I am sitting here with nothing interesting to do. There is nothing for me to tell my friends about tonight after class, and the only thing left for me to do is “nothing”... The concept of not having something to talk about is the basis for this animation and also the basis for many other animations that I have done. The last couple of months before this animation was created were extremely boring and busy at the same time. Coming up with a way to express this feeling to others was difficult, but after several months I finally felt like I had found a good way to express what boredom feels like in terms of animated video. cfa1e77820
