Going against the insatiable grain of daily life, can be a much harder task, when dealing with the steady flowing forward motion stream that we are all currently caught in.
On taking a step back I can identify with what I have seen, why, where and when I saw it and what significance it might now hold this amount of time later. I like the idea of setting a timer, (for when it arrives I am to be static for at least two days), whilst I displace time and re-enter one for which I have already lived.
Whilst reliving some of these idea's experiments and often conversations with myself I hadn't possibly been aware of at the time, I started to understand more the relationship with myself, the relationships we all have with ourselves. Going back and reading what one has written on various dates through various months we understand our growth, our development and also our foundations. (Depending how far we go back completely depends on how much understanding with can gather).
- the proposal is that of every 25th and 50th (days to be decided) I will take time out to re-visit previous sketchbooks, logs, emails, text messages, diaries, sketchbooks, conversations etc. In some points I will relive them I will understand them better, or fully and I will understand myself that little bit more.
Books as a timeline, documenting the past for future gain.
