Historical Examples
We look at certain key historical examples, investigating source documents (a proposal, film/video recordings), to understand the context of a particular example. We make use of reinactment and re-coding as techniques useful to re-engaging / activating the historical documents. Key concern: deconstruction fo the "dominant narrative" of the genius working in isolation -- instead, attempt to reveal the surrounding infrastructures, people around the center and relations to other projects.
