Sketchy recognition/2020

2020 Installation

Focus on documenting what's already happened (pianofabriek installation), thinking since then. Website as documentation of the many elements. Multiple forms: "online publication" with pages with text, software probes, video, pdf version of publication (extended comic book from before).

Materials we have

• Coloring book(s) (the printed contours)
• The "animation cells" -- photos taken in the installation as people were drawing
• The scans of completed drawings (made at pianofabriek)

Sketchy sketches

• Musical instruments, hygenic pseudo-neutral space of the musem.
• Classification that comes from the quickdraw data set. (also culturally heavy)
• The mismatch of how things are (mis) classified...
• Quickdraw animations...

• COCO data set --- work of ruben + cristina https://framerframed.nl/en/projecten/plotting-data-acts-of-collection-and-omission-publication-launch/
• Saskia's story (todo: link to transcription)
• Computer vision problematics...

Possible outcomes / forms

• PDF / Comic book
• Video (animations)
• Workshop / Online discussion / Collective drawing session
