I’d noticed
\n
\nfaces<\/a> before, but the sudden spike in wallborn figures around here was beginning to
\nconcern D. and Ph. Of course, I was taking pictures of the few might-be<\/i>
\nshapes emerging in the cracked paint on the door frames in this old flat, even
\nposting the images to Flickr. Changing humidity levels, expansion and shrinkage,
\nnext appear the cracks and with them, patterns: even
\npeople<\/a>.  Nonsense, you say. 
\nI had my doubts too.  <\/p>\n

\n\"Cracks<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But, today when I picked up D. from work, I went upstairs to pitch in
\non a shelf-altering project–make a crooked shelf flat (earlier came the phone
\ncall: "Bring a hack saw.  We have a shelf with two inextricable nails in need of
\nsawing."). 
\nWe had to adjust the shelf from angled–display-like–to flat.  Easy. 
\nYet the best part was that there, on the cluttered table nearby, this was staring back at
\nme:<\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

Face to Face<\/i>, an issue of Pentagram Papers 4 from the late 70’s,
\nfilled with found faces or face-like patterns.  From the jacket note:<\/p>\n

The collection of accidentally created faces shown here was assembled over a
\nperiod of two years by the Swiss designer Jean Edouard Robert.  During that
\ntime each new addition would be presented for the approval of his friends and
\ncolleagues, and it became a regular source of diversion for them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n<\/p>\n

Judging from this, it’s near to Saper’s notion of the intimate
\nbureaucracy in Networked Art<\/i> except that in this set (maybe not an
\nassembling, hard to say) the fantastical dimension provokes another question:
\nhow do the art objects\/receivables themselves act in the network? How do they
\nimpart the network structure, dynamics and flow? It is somewhat far afield from
\nmy initial compulsion to grab images of the paint-crack formations–best viewed
\nin the half-light of daybreak when I should be asleep.  Just the thing I
\nwas looking for to help me think about something more than the peopling of the
\npaint cracks (not just some lead-dust hallucination, turns out!): extra<\/i>-human
\nnetworked interaction.  Photographer Irwin Dermer adds this in the
\nintroduction to the collection of thirty or so photos:<\/p>\n

Once a group of "faces" has been found, it can be seen that a unique society
\nhas been discovered.  A society existing in isolation until the moment they
\nare seen in relation to each other.  But unlike other societies, there is
\nno interaction between members.  They serve silently until the time when
\nthey no longer function or simply become worn out.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

No interaction? Doesn’t quite seem right for some reason. And so I’ll leave
\nthis question open for now, and take away a different understanding of the
\npersistent figures in the paint cracks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
