Let Lose of the Situationisten and the concept of ‘Free’-‘Open’ work. Do you want people touching your work and making bad things out of it? See it as an inspiration of making your own work, but let go of the participation, and open work.
Focus on the things that you are making, what role do you have?
You as editor
You as an artist
You as the controller
You control..
After the mountain symbol and Guy Debord, trey other things with you graphic of process, what happens?
Version 2:
After the assessment I change ‘create new’ to ‘create something different.’
Title:
Introduction Current Practice (draft)
Start, copy, combine, transform, create something different. This method is what I use on all different subject within media, art and technology. The work uses digital objects to reflect on relationship between humans and the systems they create. With a little humour and irony I create a socially dialogue on media and the digital age. Creating an unexpected and contrarian perspective to give a different awareness and perception.
Description recent work ‘The Journey to Fuji’
The symbol of ‘two mountains’, represents the ‘empty placeholder‘ or a symbol of an image. What does that say? What kind of language is it? Where does the symbol comes from? It’s NOT just a sign. It becomes more than that, it starts a conversation. By researching all the different symbols from mountains I bump in to the symbol of landscape mode on a camera. At medially I so a connection with the Fuji Camera and the Fuji Mountain in Japan. I was never sure if the symbol comes from there, but I came up with a fiction-facts story about the mountain-symbol. In combination with the installation its creates a kind of Japanese- myth experience. I wanted to change the context of the symbol, and the point of view of the ‘two mountains’ so it starts a conversation.
Method
First a started with the symbol from the so called ‘template photobook’ what I made. Then I made a copy, the symbol as a physical object. I made different sizes to see what works best. After the copy I try to do something with it, like putting the frame in a different context. I made tourist photos with my mountain. The combination with own input is the story what I made. To make a story out of facts and my fantasy. Create something different out of the start is the template room. Placing the symbols in a room creates an environment of a template. So I did not only change the context of the symbol but also the where is was in, the template.
