Session 5 (02/01)
SLOW SPACE/STILLNESS
The Source. The I. The Destination.
Opening with Fragments
Moving to Collage.
How to collage with technology?
Many I's envisioned the collage creation,
their minds
- their voices
- shuttering.
camera,video, still, moving, music......
layer upon layer the vision grew
Each I projecting its vision.
A Cresendo: the Process, the I.
The process antagonized the I when
Quick, as a breath in gasp
- a flash of introspection
a labor not ripe for birth
The I's cradle as newborn ones
Not yet ready to run,
It's parts still larger than it's whole.
The process
- technology
- and Time.
I had approached this wishing to explore the reduction of the world around me from four dimensions to three: a flat image modulating through time.
Oddly enough, I find that the germ of my project is a two dimensional image. A fragment of life past, hardly remembered, frozen out of context. Now I wish to restore it, to add the two missing dimensions back, and to understand its place in the river of the fourth dimension Ð time. I with to re-contextualize it, to restore its resolution, to resolve something for myself.
