The Black Workbooks : Forces of juxtaposed areas.

Research Creation : Revisiting the image archive as an anachive for movements in material matters.

Perception, folds in an infinite play of foregrounding and backgrounding.

Eternal objects are nodes of relation for this elastic process of pulling in and out of experience's continuum. Perception moves-with these openings towards changes in nature occasioned by minuscule folds that are endlessly unfurling and bending on the edges of juxtaposed areas.

Like a mist or fog that makes their surface sparkle at speeds that no one of our thresholds of consciousness could sustain.

Deleuze, 1993.

Ecological approaches/affordances to aesthetic perception

When I gather together the animals, arguments, molecules, suggestions, forces, interpretations, sounds, people, and images of this study, one theme emerges. The modern story of disenchantment leaves out important things, and it neglects crucial sources of ethical generosity in doing so. Without modes of enchantment, we might not have the energy and inspiration to enact ecological projects, or to contest ugly and unjust modes of commercialization, or to respond generously to humans and nonhumans that challenge our settled identities. These enchantments are already in and around us.
