9.6.20 Assessment feedback tutorial for MF002 with Robert Luzar
Unselected work: What has merit? ‘Rich amount’ … part of a practice that is led by process, the making process.
Photography/videography: reliance on Dave interesting. Change in control.
Logic of capture/documentation:
RL ‘a certain ideology of trying to grasp, take hold of, something that seems to be in our reality’. What am I doing with the knitting? The constant construction of sculptural knitted things. ‘What is going with trying to get a grasp on something out there that seems to be at the core of process? Making process tangible, time in the present.’ I’m trying to make visible and communicate process, and the passage of time. Process has always been more important to me than the product.
Focus: ‘You are profoundly focussed.’ Read and understand context in terms of artists, of course, but in more depth by having an engagement with the philosophical framework.
Time: ‘For Bergson, time is a metaphysical thing. It’s an issue.’ When looking at the philosophical frame work you’re not just looking at what you’re making (knitting, video etc). Revisit Bergson and links between matter, memory and time. Knitting as time made visible/tangible?
11.30 Before going down the rabbit holes of reading more, consider
Look at Robert’s PhD. He says the process doesn’t always do this because of the imperative to record or capture does not effectively allow us to reflect, to access to make visible. What is the condition for the possibility to make this happen? In philosophical terms it’s a transcendental condition.
Car engine analogy – The car won’t work without the ‘special condition’. I think we’re looking for the special condition to make it visible under the hood of the car.

- what level of reflection
- how you are looking
- how you are feeling, and
- grappling, thinking through, think in the most profound sense, not through the readings but through the works especially when you’re dealing with process.. 11.58 Topography of thought/mind
