MASTER PROJECT AUTUMN 1-moodB.


TENTATIVE MOODBOARD- 30.09 - thoughts from throughout the month up to publishing workshop with Vibeke (11.10-17.10)

. concertina-like book from which the sculpture rises

- sculpture is made from lav intertwined in the warp, will make the shape/form of a guardian of the forest projected on the wall

- the rope/yarn needs to be attached tightly to form a strong warp. Vibeke suggested to use the spine of the concertina book? or maybe the book has a wire frame? 

- if I can’t manage the sculpture, the book pages could be hanging down in several columns, with lichen collumns in between? text is printed on tracing paper to see the text projected on the wall? will that work? TEST

- LevArt? why did I write that down again? link to Elinor Ostrom- governing the commons (against the ‘tragedy of the commons’ argument) WHAT WAS THAT LINK AGAIN?

SCULPTURE- first test 6.10.23    
- hung up cotton yarn as the warp, cardboard at the bottom. the warp isn’t super tight.

- need a better lightbulb/stronger lamp?, meeting with Kaja 12.10 about lights. 

- the lichen is casting shadows

- should I try to ‘sculpt’ it to look like a guardian of the forest face? OR do a randomized sculpture and see what I end up with ? 


MEETING WITH KAJA 12.10.23
- need a lyskaster, Kaja lent me one to test
- it needs to stand on the floor: limits the height of the sculpture a bit? maybe that’s just nice to have the ‘book’ on the ground, different angle and people can see the stories in a different way? 

- have to play with the distance, the further away the bigger the shadow, the closer the smaller the shadow. 

- OBS this will affect how people interact with it!
MORE TESTING WITH THE LIGHT FROM KAJA - 15.11

- The light was at 3m away and worked pretty well

- still don’t know yet if this is going to be on the floor or on a table

- if on a table, maybe bring in leaves to make a ‘bed’?

 BOOK-MAKING- workshop w Vibeke - ideas of books
- concertina book? allows for reading the stories on the installation?
- in a circle like picture below? circular motion = idea that folk stories have no beginning or end, they are continuously re-told and passed on?
- have a look at moodboard pages for more installation ideas?

COLLECTION OF STORIES
Social Media - link to the google form for collection of stories was shared on social media. a separate link for more info about the project was also available.

- two FB events where people were invited to partake in sharing their stories
- using Fett Tidsskrift social media to get stories
- sending out via email Storytelling dinners - invite 3-4 people to dinner and ask them. Open day at KHIO - table with large sheet of paper on which people can write down their description/draw it, in exchange for brownies.

- lots of stories/small descriptions and some drawings. very effective, was also fun to engage with people and hear their stories (some stories they told me I wished they also wrote down!)
