In response to Michael Lesy's "Wisconsin Death Trip," I decided to film one of the most integral components to Wisconsin culture: alcohol. The introductory text of the video is actually something I asked myself when I began this project - what do you most associate with Wisconsin? I asked this to other people as well, and the response was always along the lines of alcohol and/or cheese. I chose the first response, given that Appleton in among the top ten US cities known for having the highest bar per capita. I spent a weekend creeping in the corners of Appleton's numerous bars, filming people without their knowledge or consent (not unlike my earlier photo project).
