Proposal for Event:
The group will create an edition of 6 books, that will be placed around the college for a certain period of time.
Each page of the book will contain an individual printed response to the idea of Anti-Sense, where the book itself represents a narrative, but that is contradictory because each page is an individual response.
Each page: 20x20 dimensions. each print should fit on a page this size.
Friday:
ReplyDeleteDiscussion: Each of us is still working towards our individual response and development to the concept of Anti-Sense.
Decisions Made: where to publicize; when to publicize.
size/paper/material, appearance.
Material to purchase: paper, sewing supplies, spray mount, comment books, blades, scissors, white gloves.
Deadline: Wednesday 24th February 2010
Next meeting: Monday 22nd February 2010
Anti-Sense Group.
Meeting on Friday, 19.2.2010
ReplyDeleteDiscussion on materials and size for the book (final piece)
Public and interactive element: comment book for viewers
The book is a in a way a multi-dimentional piece: 3d containing 2d (pages w. print (signs), letters etc), reflecting the multi-dimensional elements in Kafka's story.
Next meeting Wed., 24.2., 10.00 for final decisions and making of the book.

Following discussions about making the print book as public as possible I have contacted Gavin Clarke from the student union to see if he has any useful contacts. In the mean time I am looking for permission from the college library and emailing the National library and the Print Gallery in Temple Bar. Alongside the copies we plan to make public will be a small comment book for feedback, this is to record the reaction of the public, which we plan to study and use for our presentation. We are also working on advertising our seminar day as well as possible, to encourage other years to participate in the feedback of the 'print book'.
ReplyDeleteAnti Sense does not mean nonsense!

odradek searches for order but finds disorder in nature. Tangible and intangible he is the anti-sense creature that defies logic.

Kafka plays with language through metaphors. He appears to treat the narrative like a 'muse'. Muse as in, a guiding spirit and source of inspiration. There are undertones of the sublime, transcending logic, creating an anti-sense structure.
ReplyDeleteBy printing images our mark becomes the impression. 'Odradek' is Kafka impression. The impression through print is an art of topography. The six hand printed books have both physical and temporal qualities, yet as an art work it transcends the authors original idea. The viewer now interprets what is seen and felt and has ownership of the outcome of the experience.
