So far, I've been working with these images and type from the antique store. Last semester, I attempted to cut through a couple books to get the feeling of walking through the store while flipping through a book. That sort of worked, but my paper engineering was questionable at best. If I can't walk through the store in this form, then why not walk around it? This is an idea I want to play with.
I'm using a combination of silhouettes from the first semester and this semester of seminar to form my structure. This is a rough idea of how the images are ordered.
thinking of these silhouettes like a German expressionist movie set...
ReplyDeleteand, that different elements from different images, might be recombined, as if memories, encoded (flat, minus detail) break apart, recombine...
could be animation, but no need, as "the book" is already cinematic (and has the advantage of enabling both forward and backward movement).
suppose that different opacities/transparencies might play a rôle, too.
