souvenirification
documentation cope 4 impermanence
difficulty accepting impermanence in my life and a career stuck in develepment in a negative direction rather than preservation has left me in a cycle of moarning the past - this is my attempt at souvenirification , immortalizing moments in life that will be gone, physical environments that dissolve into something less meaningful
interested in physical materials, accepting the barriers that prevent a physical hobby, internet art has become atmospheric/3d so im more interested in making digital art that uses what i have available to me personally, based on my environment/possessions
process documentation.. seeing real things change over time
owning things that mean something to me, the grasp for more of a moment, the greediness of nostalgia
-- understanding my possessions vs interests vs experiences
Cataloging my inventory
Precious . samples .. a trinket of the chain of labour and process.. Remnant of the land
The ritual of documentation keeps me grounded
Methodologies
processes
Nostalgia can only occur through documentation- did not occur until documentation of the past?
