Line is Movement

 


“Duration is measured by the trajectory of a body in motion and that mathematical time is a line.”

Henri Bergson.


 

Line is the moving.

Line is duration.

Line is past, present and future.

Line is experience.

Line is a direction.

Line is a force, a trigger.

To think forward is to move, mark, make, is to make an event.

Early Sound Explorations

 


[Sound is Location] [Location is Orientation]
My sound explorations began with attending live concerts and making experimental direct linear drawings, mapping the folds and stretches of my body as they were happening as a result of moving-with-sound. The initial drawings looked like subterranean water maps, and consisted of a continuing line swirling over and over again, sometimes stretching and filling up the whole paper. Later, the way of drawing changed, it became more “filtered” and indirect by the use of materials like neon twine, homemade brushes, traced projected dance performances, (of my own). All these made for new mark making.
