Evolution

In an effort to understand the new processes that have been uncovered, this is a reworking of my practice. Through contemplation I realized that what is of the most importance to me is not to abandon the original mode of thinking, but to inform it to generate new possibilities. While these new practices may yield a certain 'unknowing' of places of start and places of finish, there is still a desire to create a particular thing. One can get there by chance, but then what do you do with it? The new area of starting that has been uncovered is an approach in which you don't assume an end. I like to think of this as arriving at a situation as a complete alien. No understanding of what you are dealing with can be achieved ahead of time. The result of this is a creation of a particular asset, or a static. When I realized what this was, as an asset, I realized that I was not in the practice of creating works, but of creating assets for use within a practice. Static was not an end result, but a beginning. Can static be used to achieve that particular thing? That thing gets created through my existing practice, though the processes through which the assets are rendered informs the practice as an infinite growth cycle. That is to suggest that beginnings can be created with no end in site, and render wholly unique assets or creatures. These processes themselves are unique, individualized practices. The end result then informs the core practice and is run through it to generate the ultimate desired object. Assets remain individualized and unique, and are also combined, hybridized, and frankensteined through the core practice to generate further unique end results, which are ultimately the desired particular objects. This is simply the process of creation. Process of distribution, assimilation, spreading, and consuming demand a different graphical representation all together. Though I feel we have not yet reached that part of the cycle.
