Morphologies of body and event

- and other types of rethorics of space

Friday at 4 PM the masterstudents at Bergen Academy of Architecture (BAS) just had their debuts as authors and publishers, as they wrote the text for and produced the zine B01.

laur.mars.2017

During a week of workshop, 9-11 students have worked 9-21 writing texts. The texts have had various constraints; oulipo-style. The subject matter is the student's area of study; space, bodies, mind - architecture, psychology, sosiology. Our 9-11 truly talented MA-students have written on short notice, filling text into a rather strict template created by professor Wiesner. "Like a glass of water," says Wienser about the template: You fill it with text and when your text stops the page is finished. If the glass of water is full, the text finishes on the next page." Hence, each page produced looks lika an image. Or a building. Or a text. 

Students wrote. Then gathered text to a book. We made the textzine B01, the phozine B01, filled with the excersises E01, E02, etc, like: 

E03  make 5 statements
statements about space and event(s) in

space. each sentence to be about 35 words. use punctuations to cut sentences.
twt between 150-180 words

time frame 10 minutes

Thanks to professor Thomas Wiesner whom invited me to do this workshop with him at BAS, and to the very dilligent students that did as we said they should do. Yet, they did the little extra too. Like true artists.
