| Radiant Map Nov2011 in developmental stages |
I have updated radiant map since last posting...as you can just about see (picture is from my phone..not great) I have taken lots more on borrowed camera from college, which are much better but I wont be downloading those until I have pretty much completed module...theres lots to do yet.
Ok getting back to radiant map I have on the travel cards made further points, rambling- thoughts really telling myself what to start thinking about in terms of what I should be considering now. Point 1. not to use 'time' as an issue but to work with it...it will always be issue so what can I do, I know that once I have finished MA I will have more time to research/practice. I'm being positive here can you tell?? Point 2. to keep up and maintain postings, yes you dear blogger...Point 3. my practice in terms of films I have created so far, there must be 6 or 7 of these now...all lining up to be edited (shall come back to that shortly) Point 4. actions set now. that's it I think. Ive added a 'STOP' just before reaching the future and questioned WHAT IS MY CONTRIBUTION TO KNOWLEDGE. I thought about the game Monopoly when adding this..I may play on that abit more, I think it may help??

You can just make it out in the image that I have started to create another layer above what I see as stage 1. (RM) the single centre of enquiry. I want to show a 3d platform that considers stage 2. integrated map-multiple centres of enquiry. To do this I have used foam board to place the RM over, I have then used coloured thread and dressmaking pins to help illustrate relationships between areas.
The idea comes from an exhibition at the V&A 'Out of the Ordinary- Spectacular Craft' where I came across the work of Anne Wilson..Topologies (2002-ongoing) lace thread, cloth, pins, painted wood support. I shall find an image..back shortly! found something. see image.

Ok so this is how I see it developing along with the written commentary of my development. Going back to editing I mentioned earlier that I had made 6/7 films so far that i need to edit. Naomi is going to advise me on this which we shall do next Thursday 1st December..look forward to getting on with the next stage. Having practiced today (without Matt's bit of paper) I can download film onto imovie, hooray!! I'm pleased with myself as not easy to remember. on that I did some filming with fashion students today..we went through a mock run of putting a garment together within an hr hr. the aim was really to get them to think about the different elements that will make up the final piece..the sequence of processes they need to entertain before doing their live performance. I hope to show them next week how to edit, the very basics anyway.
Finally having to and fro with Eric again this week and getting on-where he has sent me a link which I have tried accessing through my email but with no avail..will do in next posting...
defiantly last thing. I looked up Andy Warhol's 8hrs and 5minutes black and white film of Empire state building shot in 1964. it made think about my own work, in terms of what is important and what is not...? how do we know? taking film of nothing and putting into a context of what people are doing in space and time is relevant isn't it? we cant see it but whilst I m here writing this post I wonder about life around me, it still continues on even though I stop and pause at precisely 18:35 (draft saved)
looking at warhol's film it makes you think that something might happen so you keep watching not wanting to miss out..
from wikipedia.
Philosophy of space and time is the branch of philosophy concerned with the issues surrounding the ontology, epistemology, and character of space and time. While such ideas have been central to philosophy from its inception, the philosophy of space and time was both an inspiration for and a central aspect of early analytic philosophy. The subject focuses on a number of basic issues, including—but not limited to—whether or not time and space exist independently of the mind, whether they exist independently of one another, what accounts for time's apparently unidirectional flow, whether times other than the present moment exist, and questions about the nature of identity (particularly the nature of identity over time).
The Empire State Building filmed for 8 consecutive hours from dusk till dawn of the following day, shot on the night of the 25th of June 1964 from the 44th floor of the Time Life Building. «Empire» is an object-trouvé, a ready-made that prefigured todays webcam images. It can also be considered a ‹structural film›: the obsessive repetition of the same image triggers our focus on the act of looking, on the value of the frame and most of all on the film duration. Time of reality and time of cinema are the same.
