01: solo for six
with music by Leia Devadason
document#1
the documents are extensive and overwhelming. it makes me question the maker of that time – for whom are you recording these thoughts? how much did you actually share then? i know now that as someone encountering these documents at the time, especially as guides, the principal reaction is being daunted by the sheer overload of information. bulks of words, multiple formats in which different modes of thinking are expressed, and no code with which to read them.
i’m trying to decide whether to look at it all as an assemblage, or to stick to the parts i’ve made screenshots of. i feel ashamed and embarrassed about inviting people to be subjected to reading and making sense of these documents without filter.

this document was submitted as a reflection on the solo-making process. this valley of reflection curved into the next work in this series: «further down the middle,». a momentum derived from dissatisfaction.
