formal moments/presentation prep

  • a formal/opportunistic/professional moment, no time/place for meandering
  • do the thing, clear mess, documentation, moving to the next ‘thing’
  • communication – getting ideas across
  • research: 3 books – Nam June Paik, La Monte Young, James Turrell, Cliff Martinez
  • realisation: propose, schedule, initiate, conduct, thoroughly ( :/ ) tested systems and techniques
  • barriers/obstacles faced/overcame – reflection
  • enquiry: tests ideas and concepts at an advanced level of practice – showing/demonstrating progress from years gone by/creating personal narratives
  • contextualising my work (academic works/texts, artist research/works/case studies{3})
  • outcomes of the research
  • communication – how my early creative processes relate to themes and contexts arising within the guest lecture series – not just by name, showing depth of research
  • placing my work within the community of (one’s) practice – creates realisation/makes it real
  • knowing when to introduce comparison – crucial moments
  • intertextuality – how does meaning arise ? nothing has distinct/isolated meaning – the meaning is only present due to its relation to other works – embedded within a broader plane of society – ‘the meaning of the work originates within the context of which it is found’
  • reflecting critically – changing/understanding different perspectives
  • knowledgesituate research, development and conceptualisation of project work in relation to appropriate theoretical frameworks

Portfolio Works: Project 1 – Test Run (to be updated over the coming weeks)

On Saturday the 12th of November 2022, me and my videographer Tobias Futers conducted a small-scale testing of my portfolio works (Project 1). The attached media is evidence of exploration within the tailored, manufactured environment. A small-scale, partial realisation of my automatic text.
