While the idea of carving is a fun one to be smart about the carving makes it very nerve racking. With so many ideas it was hard to choose one path.
Fortunatly I was able to create a new narative of the book. Starting with a void to capture a grouping of words which brings you to pages of signifigant lines and drawings all landing on a new void to transport you to new words. The objective is to cut through all the extra FLW put in the book and pull out real meanings to his words.
The carving is still to be read as a book but in a new way.
so somewhat like the "tree of codes" we were talking about yesterday? (ie. as safran foer does for the "sTREEt OF croCODilES"?)...
ReplyDeletealso, will you use the images or do the same operation with the images...? just curious...
Yes somewhat like the book we were talking about yesterday. As for images im only keeping a few that can work with the horizonality of the lines of text. It will be through the entire book but many pages will just have voids through it.
Deleteok... [the fragments of images, overlapping with other fragments to create new images? like the old flap books...? http://goo.gl/EsF9AY ]
ReplyDeleteYes. The images and text overlapping and creating new ideas.
ReplyDeletecool... an image of new architecture (or transformable one) based on overlapping pages... wright would have not like that...! (just like the cow and dinosaur combined make the cowosaurus...!)
ReplyDeletei was in studio and saw the progress... how much more of it is to be done?
