7:47_01.13.2007: Tracking this beast has been nearly impossible.
i keep opening my stetch book inorder to reflect on this piece or sketch out the entire concept or structure and all i end up doing is doodling. sure, little snippets of some rational construct but its as if the piece is not linear enough to record in some scientific fashion. what im trying to do is identify key themes prevolent throughout the entire work.
four characters.
four situations.
four aspects of the psyche according to carl jung.
is that coincidence? i was originally interested in that but i abandoned it for this SDR. but do my new characters embody the different aspects of self? yes, but am i forcing those connections? it is hard to tell.
the characters evolved individually in the fragments of earlier works that were abandoned or never allowed to come to fruition. what each of those earlier works evolved into was a series of short looping films which in the end were made linear and connected into dream sleep repeat. what those earlier loops consisted of was material which varied from metaphors to surreal "pointless" events. rat at the wall was the latter. wall however came about through the realisation of overcoming a problem, wall is the visual interpretation of feelings contained mentally. when the mental event happened, my mind simultaneously provided me with visions to explain my thoughts. this is where wall came from. my mental projector of explanation via symbolic. the darkness came about through, perhaps similar to wall but more consciously constructed. the content of darkness reflects the explanation of a feeling and is equally obvious. the setting and mood reflect her monologue accordingly. i will discuss later how this is signifacnt as a starting point for the narrative. the final segment resides closer to darkness in the areas illuminated in that it is a visual reflection of internal feeling and that its representation is obvious. clown deals with insecurities that exists inside myself. fear and sadness masked by a persona that is for the most part silly.
the four parts as individuals speak to eachother in one language, excpet rat on the wall. rat on the wall, while is a visual concept portraying a feeling, its feeling aswell as its message are hidden and much more abstract. rat on the wall stemmed from a loop where a rat came out of a hole smoked and then went inside. this piece in its linearity, became a narrative without reason. what is this piece talking about? is it good? does it really belong? does it matter that it doesnt serve purpose? are there really rules? all say yes, every decision must be "mine". chance falls or no chance falls. stool relies on impulse and intuition. DSR resides within thought.
