10h41 questions:

-       If you could eliminate something in your current practice what would that be?

-       If you scan the projects you did since we met last time, what was your favorite research(phase)?

19.8.2021

JanM: conditioned ignorance

method of working as a text previous to work process. Trust situation rather then contract

JanF: credits, conditions, author rights in contract

strategized scale-specific productional reports similar to JanM solo with less light

H: pandemics either all work or nothing at all. Working through, very technical and going even deeper. Now wants to make musc, as it is composition too, but much simplified.

Less effort then light design.

Conviction: making light design but in another way, saying no to a couple of things.

Old tools rotting- efficiency with old tools, constant re-adaptation?

Bram, Brecht Joost: everyone went into low tech research mode, not much requests

JanM:theaters specialize themselves with diverse equipment- creativity put in question as a result

Favorite work process

H: Melanie Perrier children performance cooking wine, Matisse-like color shadows, rainbow from 20 2K-s, playing on korg as a piano. Focused, brainy, interesting. Visual artist

JanM:

there is nothing before creation. Preliminary is a part of creation.

Blessed: no talk, full runs, solid dialectic process all media

JanF: work fields in bigger productions get differentiated, some things are responsibly taken care of

How do we develop our personal instruments?

Tools---- holistic thread (much talk about lanbox)

Goals with this project

E:Ikujiro Nonaka Dynamic theory of organizational knowledge creation

happy to analyze based on this and discuss, make space for tacit knowledge and allow dialogue with explicit knowledge. Articulation commitment autonomy

Principles (like no logical fallacies), observe and write about one another's work, observe simple phenomena- lexicon. Meet each other, work together with students

JanF: terminology creation, understanding own practice

H: desire---- collective (now not believing in it but still it works)

10ys in collective, collective decisions were the right ones.

Common goals and vocabulary

meeting light designers: exchange professionally

pessimism compensated by teaching

JanM: personal research

hinge moment

light as a major signifier

G:how do we communicate externally? Writing, fanzine as not a comprehensive end presentation, articles, opinions

own way, own rhythm

Tomi: something to build upon
