This project started with my own struggles with coming up with a topic for a grad show without being presented with any restrictions.
In doing so I consulted Peter Schmidt and Bryan Eno’s oblique strategy cards. The card I chose read ‘What are you really thinking about just now? Incorporate’. It lead me to look into how artists of different disciplines deal with unblocking their own creativity. How narrowing down your options can lead you down different roads.
I researched the ancient Chinese divination text ‘The I Ching’ as well as the Dadaist cut-up technique popularized by William S.Burroughs. I then interviewed creatives of different disciplines to find out how they generate ideas and if there is a common thread throughout which I could apply to my own practise.
