Annotated Reader
For this Special Issue 8 we started to work with Steve on an annotated reader.
On the contrary of the special issue 7 reader , the annotated reader analyse the text through an addictive process. The notes taken on the text constitute a para-text which exist in parallel or in an overlayed layer.
Each person has is own way of taking notes, as it can be done by writing around the text or just on a side, by highliting, underlining or earesing portions of the text to stress enphasis, by writing a parallel text on bottom of the original, or by inserting the notes in between two lines and so on...
Addictive and Subtractive analysis of a text
Working on those two different readers pushed me to confront them and the idea of add and subtract material to the text perfectly fits those two different approaches.
For the special issue 7 reader we was more focused on the synopsis and abstract where an objective way to calculate the effective amount of subtraction was to give a certain amount of words to each part, for example 500 word for the synopsis and 200 for the abstract. Personally my way of taking notes was always through a stage in between the actual text and the synopsis. This first level of subtraction, which can be called summary, is a perfect example to me as I just rewrite the text without the parts I don't need, mostly reusing the same phrases reworked to make them shorter.
Subtraction
text > summary > synopsis > abstract > title (one word)
On the other
Addiction
text > notes > other texts > other notes (network of books and notes)
To me a good way to think the analysis of a text is by placing it at the center of 2 processes which goes in two opposite direction.
(one word) title < abstract < summary < text > notes > other texts > other notes (network of books and notes)
