1) what have been your current areas of research?
TOPICS:
interfaces // spaces (data structures; data vizualization => communication systems <= language structures; and types: graphic, linguistic, geometric, mathematic...)
experience - perception - phenomenology
SPACE - mapping/ placing - accessiblitiy
(body) MOVEMENT in SPACE - knowledge / conscience
TOOLS:
web desinginig; programming languages; computational creativity tools; other software.
visuals: (moving) images - type/graphics; sound; multimedia installation; performance (?)
2) how do you intend to build on them?
case scenario - MOVEMENT
"... or use for its creation new rules starting from zero, that is, set out on a path of construction (...) the critical, crucial absence of transformational processes or, as Immanuel Wallerstein more precisely defined it, the "transformational TimeSpace" in "The Inventions of TimeSpace Realities: Towards an Understanding of Our Historical Systems,".
"We needed to formulate our (phenomeno‑logical) experience with the world of revolution and transformation explicitly, to search for the boundaries between the role and thinking of an individual and movement in society, of passivity and activity; to search for keys which would give meaning to events in societies, imaginations, and transformations in which we were both passive and active actors. "
"Atlas is an assemblage in which the individual components (entries) do not have their own set place—it is by reading that places are found for them. Just as an atlas begins with introductory maps, so the editors have experimented in offering at the beginning of the book a plurality of diagrams (of the body, machine, landscape, architecture/assemblage, and so on), creating schemes and models of relationships on how one can interpret and order the entries of the dictionary anew each time, but by a different method. There is no "main" diagram; none of them are above any others in the hierarchy. Their (non)spaces can interpenetrate on several levels and meet at several junctions. Each individual virtual assemblage originating in the head of the reader is possible and correct, because their number is not reducible or quantifiable. "
3) formulate an (im)possible project (or projects) that address 1) and 2)
