Back in 1980, two French philosophers named Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari came up with a notion they called rhizomatic thinking, or rhizomatic learning.

A rhizome is a root system. Unlike a tree that grows from a central trunk by branching into smaller and smaller divisions, a rhizome expands laterally, equally. There’s no primary source, no hierarchy; you can enter the rhizome at any point and go from there to any and all other points through an interconnected, nonlinear network.

What does this have to do with writing?

A lot.

A rhizomatic perspective helps us find our way through forced-choice questions like:

Are you a plotter or a pants-er?  Is it better to write your story from beginning to end, or to write the core scenes first? Should you start from stakes, motive, goal, or arc-of-change?

If you think of a novel as a rhizome, you can say yes to all these options. You can enter the world of the novel wherever you like, and make your way through the network. You can leap-frog, follow side-paths, retrace your steps and begin again, move up and down and across.

In other words: You can begin in the middle of the story. With a description of the environment. With a conversation between two characters. With an image that has special meaning for your protagonist.

Draft 2

“CORNER COUCH”

A home is perceived in many different ways. Home is what you make of it. A can ideally be a safe place, a place of focus, a place of relaxation or hecticness. Project “Corner Couch”, highlights this as we explore our home. Throughout this photo book I wanted to showcase my family in a recurring spot. With four permanent members, two adults and two siblings with the occasional stay of my grandparents. As well as my partner who stays from time to time. With this exposing the view of an intergenerational home. With the appearance of  each person and how they personally interact with spaces within this space. Showcasing aspects of my home that are used for the multiple, or spaces that are more for the individual. As I grow older I wanted to capture these moments to reminisce on as I become more aware of people growing old who are close to me. This particular space in my home is used often but isn’t noticeable. The sense of repetition explains a story of how each individual can use a space in their own sense.  Inspired by photographers such as Carrie Mea Weems and Barbara Probst, showcasing aspects of their work to strengthen mine. Encouraging the candid approach allows for showcasing  of images in a relaxed and authentic feeling in photography. Blending the images together to create a seamless feeling that can capture genuine moments in time. Working with light colour and dark colour hues to pay homage to the difference in perspective but also time of day. Ultimately looking back on space in my home and how it can reflect the thinking of one person and the actions of another. 

Throughout this photobook, you will see much of the same but difference of perspective. Creating spaces that are used often and repeatedly capturing moments in time of people enjoying the space. Grabbing inspiration from Barbara Probst and her inspiration for juxtaposition experimentation. 

Creating multiple views of images to view a full image as well as receiving as much information. This produces images with intent. In addition Carrie Mea Weems' work motivated the constant idea of repetition. Throughout this assignment I looked at spaces within my household that are of frequent use. Exposing elements of 52 John Dee Crescent. By dividing these spaces as we experience each space differently. Capturing the variation in images from the influences such as time of day to family environment. After much research and looking at commonly used spaces I came across “corner couch”. A space that is quietly tucked away in the corner. Tucked in the quiet corner that creates a seamling loud sitting space as it becomes the preferred place to sit while in the lounge. Walking through the members of my household and showcasing their own emotions as they discover and interact with “corner couch. From the early mornings to the late nights. Focusing on the individuals while they sit. With use of light and after processing editing I was able to create a set of photos ready for the final stage.  After conducting research, I explored various photo books and websites where my work could be published for public viewing. After grabbing inspiration, since I used my own living space as the subject, I thought it would be fitting to create a coffee table book. A collection of photos that serve as home decor. A coffee table book, with its thick pages and minimal text, would showcase my work effectively. A hardcover with textured writing could emulate the feel of the couch featured in the photos. This would also be a great way to advertise my couch for sale or for the company to showcase the couch. The book could be displayed when potential customers view the couch. "Architectural Digest" publishes similar books that highlight people's homes and their furniture. Displaying photos that enhance a space. Another way to get my work into the public eye would be by adding the set of images into “HOME Magazine”. Home magazine is very similar to Architectural Digest but is based on homes in New Zealand. This helps reach more domestic customers rather than international. Last but not least the unlimited publisher I would want to feature my work would be “Frankie Magazine”.  Frankie Magazine, an Australian publication, covers topics like people, fashion, photography, and architecture. I believe my work would be a great fit for their "people" category, where they interview everyday individuals. Through this platform, they could interview me, allowing my work to reach their audience.

Questions

week 9

What and who will you portray? My family and the odd appearance of my grandparents and family friends

What might you communicate visually through the concept of portrayal? Looking into my family home and how each person can interact differently with the spaces they are in

What is your position on your subject matter? A person who wants to explore people perspectives in a spaces that I used regularly.

What is your voice? What is unique about your subject or your approach to it? My voice for this project is to explore spaces and people perspectives in my home as a person who uses these spaces regularly. I want to capture a glimpse into people's emotions and their feelings. Having more extensive understanding on how tehy relate themselves to their surroundings.

What do you have unique access to? A group of people, a place, a situation…? During this project I have the added advantage of being able to continuously shoot in my chose space as I live there and people are always coming in and out.

Consider the important role the "title" takes in communicating your intention and how audiences might ‘read’ the book. What is your working title?  My current working title is "52". This coming from the number my house is situate at. When the audience reads I want them to look at a family and how this one family interacts with their home.

What would you like readers to think and feel? I would like readers to feel warmth and sense of comfort. But also a helpful sense knowing that its okay to grow up and grow old.

What is the role of the text within the book? How does the text relate to the story the images tell? How do they work together? Working alongside each of the images will be a caption that works in relation to the image itself. Helping assist the reader to capture a glimpse of emotion.

How many shoots do you require to gain adequate coverage and successfully tell the story?  I believe that 7 shoots, including the 14 day challenge will help gain adequate coverage to tell my story.

Do you need gear and support with your shoots? What is your plan? I don't have much support but I do occasionally have an assistant to hold the reflector.

What software and workflow will you use to edit, process, collate and design your photobook PDF? I use Camera Raw as well as Photoshop/Lightroom for cropping and further adjustments. For creating my photobook, I will use InDesign, as I feel most proficient with it. InDesign will also enable me to use my preferred founts and establish a clear grid system for both text and images.

What is your research plan? To explore photographers who have similar interest as myself and research their type of techniques. Looking into their past work and taking inspiration for future work.

What other photo books have you looked at? Barbara Probst, Jeremy cost, Adrian Morris as well as Carrie Mea Weems. I will continue my research so I can build a better understanding in what type of shoots I will continue to take.

Are there decisions that have yet to be made? How will you resolve these? My most important decision right now to continue to create opportunities to take more photos.

Barbara Probst

I first saw this photo book as Isobel had looked at it throw her research on photo books. I wanted to have a look at it myself as I thought it would cool. Her Photo book was really clean and with even spacing. She would have perspective shoots that would show the photographers view as well as the models view. I found this, something new I had never seen this before. The way she would formart her books was interesting as some pages would have many images and you would also have pull out pages that would show many images. This would usually follow a set of images that relate to each other. She wasn't afraid to put black and white and coloured images together, as well as putting intense coloured photos next to less intense photos. I thought that her book formatting was very different, as you could still understand her story but some images were very different to others.

“Barbara Probst.” n.d. Barbara Probst. https://barbaraprobst.net/works/.

I wanted explore her work more and see other work she has showcased throughout her career. Lots of her work will focus on self portraiture as well as perspective shoots. She has many shoots where she will shoot the same thing but in different angels which gives off mixed perspectives. Also working in circular motions so you can still see the story as you explore more of the space.

Linda's Book Obsession Reviews "The Color of Ice" by Barbara Linn Probst, She Writes Press, October 2022

Linda’s Book Obsession Reviews “The Color of Ice” by Barbara Linn Probst, She Writes Press, October 2022

Wow! Barbara Linn Probst, the author of “The Color of Ice” has written a memorable and thought-provoking novel. I love how the author vividly describes the stunning landscape, and scenery through sensory detail. The author is a master at describing creativity, and various forms of art. The theme throughout is symbolic and shows contrasts. The timeline for this story is set in the present and goes…
