&ldquoratioNAL&rdquo
20-23 Nov 2 pm / 14.00
With protoPLAY, the artists
collective I co-started, we have been engaged in trying to
develop ways to stimulate collaborative creativity. This work
focuses a lot on examining the differences and connection between
different peoples work, blurring these distinctions in order to
learn about the work and to mass-produce possibilities. Then
there is the question of managing and realising these
possibilities some how. This relates to my personal interest in
measurement &ndash which shares its
etymological roots (via Greek at least) with understanding and
logic. &ldquoratioNAL&rdquo. And then how humans in a
particular society go about measuring,
and then alternative methods of measurement other than
standardised arbitrary units, such alternatives are found (and
can understand) in music
art and mathematics. A lot would depend on how many people their
were, how much I could communicate in English, and what the
participants personal interests and practices were in the first
place.
For the workshops, I have had an idea, which comes out of the
performance I am doing now which fits with video, and
performance, basically the structure would be something like
filming ordinary actions in the workshop and or in the street,
and then copying them again, and simplifying them, making a new
video. The idea could be to question how
&lsquocompetent&rsquo the beings in the video are at
being human. And to ask how (and to start to ask why) particular
actions and sounds end up becoming archetypes, which we compare
ourselves too, and we try, and finally become socialised into. I
have a few other ideas around this which might make into
something, like taking sound (from films) into the street on a
ghetto-blaster and making the live world into a performance, with
a interventionist sound installation.
