UNFASHIONING THE OBJECT



The seminar set up a workshop, using Vogue magazines and objects with simple tools to 'fashion' a fluxus table of readymades adjusted in one hour - these were photographed and projected to examine the rupture between the real presence of a collection of objects and the images produced by the immediacy of the digital image. How can production be delimited at this scale and register of information? Where was the event to be located? These images would constitute with the first performance of drawing and writing in charcoal and displayed in the context of string [ a mile of string] a layering of image-events as a website platform for further additions [and subtractions] at a later date. The choice of these images as avatars would be organised by the designer Alex Keating, in discussion with the group.
