PROPOSAL FOR A SIMPLE A METHOD
(homage to oskar hansen's open form)
1. specifically here
person one:
A makes an object [+ or - human]
B creates an action towards this object
person two:
C comments, describes this action (audio, visual, text, code)
D transforms this description with another action in another medium
[modulation, convolution but cross-media]
all participants go through this, par example: 10 people each make an object and an action, and all of them go as well through the 9 other objects/actions to create 100 results... and if there is time they can all go through it all again!
it is important that before you start this, you read the pamplet and action and think of one of the provided 7 modules you want to work for
0. a general framework for making an object
an obligatory loop where the artists make the environment in an environment, by recreating the context, or better a framework for behaviour
INPUT
1 observation
2 perception
3 analysis
OUTPUT
4 extract material/physical features
5 create a comparable model
6 relate to synthesis by generating a construction with audio, visual, text, code
FEEDBACK
7 send back to initial environment
8 observe the resulting changes from the activity and feedback
9 adjust the parameters till an in/out of equilibrium state is reached
the audience is part of the changing activity itself and at the same time the environment in which it occurs, and as such occupies the same space as the artists
