I went to the national portrait gallery to see the Twiggy exhibition on Oct 1st.On the way i did a bit of thinking on the brief, did a little observation and did a small line drawing in my sketchbook.
'think it would probably be best to categorise experiences sense & thought-wise. So, having 5 categories named sight, hearing, felt touched, smelt, and then having a 6
th category documenting what
i was thinking. my problem with immediate documentation is that i am experiencing the documentation
simultaneously and it
is to an extent
detracting from the experience. Then again, if i tried to recall what i was experiencing,
I'd be limited to my memory, which, rather than being broad, focusing on certain things and eliminated others. Not only this, but writing is quite a conspicuous activity:- reading, listening to music and talking being the normal ones
. Maybe i should document the documentation process'
Quick line drawing of a guy sitting opposite me on the tube. He knew i was observing him and got a little fidgety
