CURATING THE SPACE/ ARCHITECTURE/ BUILD
References, organic (like workspace with photos – stills of working / tracing shadows), space curate, sharpness of shadows with light, calming/ pacifying, dream-like effect, operate from what is needed, minimal, repetition of syllables, experience of being in the space
frame the light – like an exact rectangle of light – restrict illuminated area so people can draw within that and only their hand –
placement of paper- whats around? black ? free standing on a pole/ plinth / stand arising out of the floor? ceiling? suspension – in time/ space – light from top/ paper from below
drape black cloth around to take away the stiffness
light on top/ light at the bottom? illumination from the base? test shadows?
film camera from top/ from light source side/ physicality/ presence of light?
sheets of paper? a2/ a3? bind with silica gel? print something on them? screen print? letterpress? positioning – centre – allowing for l&r space to fit within
physical barrier? – make person stand at a certain distance or allow mobility in a certain angle
height: average between tall & short – test – step in – architecture student booth/ at the back of college?
TRACES?
16mm filmed projection with sound
micro ellipse lamp
auto/ telescopic pole
“A poet must leave traces of his passage, not proof.” Rene Char
shredder, filmed anyway, stored, thrown, taken away? a scroll/ roll outside-
no re-enactment? only performances filmed!
Live feed filming – cho suggestion? processing help.
TABLET working possibility? trace-less! – pin-up traces in one area? closed box for traces –
MATERIAL: taping edges? silicon gel? ink and brush, brush pens? crayons will make it tougher? pen? not as effective
performance with space/ collective stages performance
1. 6/ 8 people on a wall/ music/ light/ projection?
2. 3/4 people not he floor
3. interfering 2-3 people – perhaps on the floor?
4. just one person – speeds, repetition, just one, leave midway?
5. one day – natural light performance – on a sunny day?
a dynamic controlled spot – like divya kasturi performance
combine/ painting/ opposite above pasting
Sound in background/ bohm/ krishnamuty/. jeff ted talk/ my re-reading – or just type?
on the suspended trace floor – music?
concept explanation: type? projection?
