VIDEO
size
rotation
filtration
color
transparency

use a 60 ‘beats’ per minute format
duration 1,2, or 4 beat
maybe use measures — total of 4 beats per measure
each ‘note’ would be a change in the image
(bigger jumps at the end of a measure?)
use small changes like 1 step in transparency or filter — any of the things on left
picturing a video image superimposed on a grid of photos — gradually fade the vid while changing grid
maybe change the size etc
several changes could happen in one beat

yesterday bought
2 fuentes books
Barthes lectures
Sandi Fellman book that i may not like but it was only $3

looked up Sandi Fellman — she is really beautiful or was — <it's> amazing how many things are on the web — <it's> all these gallery images that may disappear — i don’t have time to search them all


we have too many things
the solution to this problem is to get rid of things
the problem is what things
logically it would be art material that i’m unlikely to use — so what art material do i have — do i have to get rid of electronics and circuit boards — can i part with the large pieces of wood — i have too many pieces of wood — i’m unlikely to do much sculpture unless i think it’s good exercise — which it is

mental and physical

but will i have time along with all the other things


start an encylopaedia
put everything i think of in it
maybe a data base to break things down

wood metal electronics small things nails

i had something in mind but forgot what

we have space so we may as well keep them —
i can’t be embarrassed after i’m dead
