once upon a time...

|
I want to make the story really really extreme now...at the moment is not good either extreme, but i want to start with a really  bad story so from that  I can  refine it, at the moment is just two sentences and a REALLY good quote.... I'll start to introduce the idea of the dark chamber and light as in the camera obscura in the TS.... the camera obscura would be the unconscious and the "light" the conscious I know all this terms will change eventually and this words need to be different...


A Self-Portrait revels more than just physical appearance, it reveals how the artist hopes to be viewed by the world and how it wishes to see itself. It renders the impossible and is conceived as a ruin.

 The Self-Portrait of the City was found by the city that was looking for itself, a city with no name just city. The city found a paper image of archetypes, a perspectival map of non sense. Tired of architects and people the city has taken a "brush" and has become the artist of its own context. The lost city of the "desert" will project outwards its most intimate aspects and visible atributes....(to be continued...)

 

"Every eye has its own camera obscura . The camera Obscura in the technical sense of the term, seems to be contaminated by more ideological, more unconscious connotations, carried simultaneously by the notion of camera/chamber and that of 'obscura'. In ideology, ideas are put under lock and key in a room, cut off from the real material base alone can confer upon them light and truth. The dark chamber 'is a place were light can only enter through a hole an inch in diameter to which one aplies a glass, which letting the rays from external objects pass onto the opposite wall, or onto a curtain held there, allows what is outside to be seen inside."
