Mr Tunnel is a series of exercises with different methods (drawing, Photography psychogeographical maps, diary ) to understand my surroundings, to find a way to connect to the city of Rotterdam. It maps a daily journey from one side of the river to the other. Outcome: a human-sized installation that reflects these experiences and communicates them to others.
Achievable aims for next week. Diary Thesis. First chapter, everything of student wiki; and the text of my house mate; account of activities &c. [keep a good account of workflow. SHOW!!]
Achievable aims for next week Psychogeographical map of housemates. Record chat with them about what makes home for them. Sit in Mass tunnel and 'be' mr tunnel.
Steve's commission: make drawings of the things you encounter; people you meet (who you can't photography).
[place this in proposal:
Method: Map from home to school.
I took my house mates on a walk on a sunny day . I explained psychgeography to them and handed them a camera. I asked them to capture the atmosphere of the street. Use the medium freely. Take a photo of something you find interesting. The we go to Maastunnel but how you choose the route is up to you. The group made 500 photos. I opted them into categories and printed them out. I then began to arrange them, ripping them up, visually creating a softer feel. I made connections with the string charting the route I take from my house to the tunnel.
I started to get lost in the map as it became more complex. I printed it twice so that the same material can be arranged differently by the group I commissioned to take the photographs.
Motivation: I feel detached from the streets I travel through daily, nothing excites or interests me, a pile of inert objects that get in my way. The maps are a way of connecting with the streets of Rotterdam and finding methods to make connections. .
Also:
Abstractly showing the chairs perspective. I have a smoke machine. Steve commissions to continue with the 'smoke aquarium' piece (it all relates to M. mapping the area and trying to find ways of relating to the Rotterdam.)Making a relation to place and to people. I want to make a place where people can relate so they are part of the space.
the map currently stops at **
There are free sections; the Maastunner the weather street (want to make intervention). Which colour yellow is the sun for you? making ways to encounter strangers.
- NOTE you have to keep making work, and showing
and the other side
- how can you use this diary as a psychogeographical map?
