2020 Installation
For the online installation of Sketchy Reconition, we plan a multiform online publication that (1) documents the experiences of the pianofabriek installation, (2) provides addition context in the form of text, software probes, and video, and (3) an invitation to participation through downloadable/printable PDF coloring book (photos of complete drawings can be uploaded to the site / archive), and an online discussion / collective drawing session.
Materials we have
- Detourned carmentis -- pianofabriek interface + materials
- Coloring book(s) (the PDF of contour forms used in pianofabriek) (TODO: upload)
- The animation cells -- photos taken in the installation as people were drawing (todo: are these complete?)
- The scans of completed drawings (made at pianofabriek) (todo: upload)
- Previous notes including links to first selection process of contours
- Classification that comes from the quickdraw data set. (also culturally heavy)
- The mismatch of how things are (mis) classified...
- Saskia's story of the mislabelled musical instrument (todo: link to transcription)
Topics to address
- The non-neutrality of the frame, questioning the hygenic pseudo-neutral space of the carmentis / classical archival space of the museum.
