taking off


putting on. 100 photos of putting on...10 second animation.. tripod/still camera position blutakc and tape in a tree!!!!!
making 100 changes.. outside natural light will change, things i cant alter, things that happen
some might include manipulating the space only a minute fraction of the 10 seconds..might just be weather change and putting a bit of fabric up

10 seconds of PUTTING-ON stop animation
followed by the same again but backwards..backwards ..ongoing video evolving the documenting manipulating the documenting (film deescalates the importance of photograph as object, putting more emphasis on the action..draw the line here or continue to film timelapse of what happens to den after its creation
-problems> deviating from intention into too much focus on documentation
-solution> ask others to be involved
-hypothesis> the documenting is tertiary to the work and of little proportional importance. just take a photo)

questions from a viewer.>did the installation/den/space get taken down or did it stay? were the photos documenting putting it up or taking it down???


I WALKED 10 MINUTES TO THE SITE TODAY I WALKED BACKWARDS WITH THE OCCASIONAL GLANCE BEHIND WALKING BACKWARDS seeing youre footsteps and un-footprints after youve made them. something about cycles and change and seasons and not knowing..
