Task: Totally open-ended library research, presented in visual format.
Process: I became inexplicably excited about a stack of old, yellowed library catalog cards, like a huge nerd. Then I cut them up into little pieces, cast them like tea leaves or tarot cards, and transcribed some results. The stack of cards I grabbed all referenced books related to ethics and philosophy, which was cool. I even brought these fragments to two poetry readings and gave a little awkward demonstration, which might have been going a bit too far, but I thought the process was more interesting than the results, and the demo may have made my explanation less confusing.
*Note: These are not properly formatted here; I have to figure out how to post them as an image later.
