Prev work
- Physical hosting
- Dissolute img < diss img >
(and back to...
- Open Sauce < open sauce words >
- Play!Fight!)
Themes:
- -many subjectivities called to collaborate/cohere
- -solidarity called for even with things we may disagree with.
- Proposal: zine on consent, content generated on the fly < consent zine >
First experiments
Opening up from narrow proposal of applying Dissolute Image to whole 'chunks' of text/images. What are the social/psychological processes being tested here? In what different ways could they be explored?
- Photocopied editions
- - A single book made multiple by the differing tastes of the copiers < photocopied editions >
- Transcribers
- - A single text split across multiple people, dependent upon their commitment to accuracy. < transcribers screenshots >
Residency
Expanding beyond digital realm. Concern shifted from Hosting to Dissemination. Looked at diverse ways of disseminating the views of others.
- Transcribing < photocopied transcriptions >
- Repeating via earpiece < video ? >
What's interesting here is how it questions autonomous agency when we start to speak others' words - authorship/agency becomes confused.
Broadcasting experiments
Aymeric said this idea of 'transmitting others' was too vague. So, brought it back to networked publishing.
- Image Embedding Ring < screenshots & feedback >
Tried out existing method (embedding) for testing willingness to 'broadcast together'
- Placard generator < placards! >
Learning new methods of transmitting the words of others.
Moving towards: publishing model incorporating the most interesting aspects of the above experiments, probably with more emphasis on P2P technologies. Idea of text as multiple not singular <Marit M - annagrammatical books>
Where Next
- Better understand P2P transmission models; role of individuals and how they relate to trackers/indexes.
