Antisocial Project
Day 1: Read [1]
Day 2: What about being anti-social off-line. I have an obsession with checking my emails. Why do I want to receive emails, what am I missing while I am checkign them? Do a day without checking my emails.
Day 3: Visit a symphony in the Doelen. First time, what is anti-social about visiting a concert like this. What happens in the brake, how do people act. Is there communication between the visitors. And how is the interaction between the orchestra and the visitors. a different version, but it is Beethoven's 9th
Director (maestro?) Yannick on Beethoven's 9th symphony [2]
Got back, totally confused. Most people go to a concert, a symphony in this case, to hear and see the orchestra live. I was there, more inspired by the movements of the musicians and especially the ma, than the music itself. Beethoven wrote his ninth symphony when he was already deaf. How can a composer possibly write a whole symphony, existing of 4 parts, when he cannot hear anything. This is like making a painter blind or a sporter unable to move. What will happen if you take the necessary for doing a thing away.
The funny thing about visiting a orchestra and a symphony was that the people were very disciplined and nice. Applaud on the right time, be very quiet when the orchestra is playing, in between parts (no applause here) they would all be coughing.
Day 4: Made words with letters, without looking. So the words who came up, where imaginable. Next step is to give the words an explanation. But this can also only arise by chance.
Day 5: What is the essence of a letter? What makes a letter a letter. When I made my own words, without looking at what letters I was picking up, I've turned some of the letters around, put them up side down etc. For example a K is a letter, but when does it actually stop being a letter?
Letters are also a social thing, they are made to communicate with other persons. So today I will be looking for a antisocial letter.
- The antisocial part of a letter can be the whitespace in/outside the letter.
- The antisocial part of a letter is the environment it is in, for example a letter can be in an area where there is nobody to read it. This reflects on the question if there is sound when there is nobody who can hear it. Wikipedia link. There can be letters in nature, accidental forms, but is there is nobody to see, these aren't letters at al. This part also reflects on the Beethoven symphony.
- The antisocial part of letters is in there meaning. A letter in it self, can, in this case, not be antisocial. But when certain letters are combined, antisocial words can come up. This part can be combined with the words I made, without looking at what letters I chose.
