sketchbook+: the line folds into Level 3

(as a placeholder in advance of Research tutorial 1).

— the piece of previous work that I have spent most time with over the past four weeks is the final work produced during Digital Image & Culture: the line, which I finalised as a tumblr site, and am currently in the process of re-publishing through facebook as a public album.

The line is also the piece on which my submission to the Walking Arts Network conference in Prespes, Greece, is based. So I am currently also in the process of writing a 3-4k word contribution for a conference publication as well as considering how it will present as a 15-min talk/presentation.

As part of the re-publishing process I am keeping an offline journal which I will move here at some point. There are some thoughts I have here right now in terms of how to proceed (and what can become part of Res or BoW and what is best kept aside).

Here some notes from this morning:

• the line as fragmented space that is very much non-linear
• the line as imaginary and anchor to the pieces articulated
• the pieces articulated are diverse:
• • private chat
  • dreams/thoughts/fantasy
  • more functional notes and records
  • methodology concerns
  • fragments from other authors
• there is no clear order as to how they are encountered: they are clearly not a singular line to be walked but multiplicity
