Patternotion: artistic systems for living
A really unusual book will be launched 1 Mar 2013. 50 artists & authors have been given one A5 page to record their individual systems of creating work, in word and/or text. A selection of these systems will then be trialled by others to see what they can produce using someone else's pattern. Sounds interesting, mad, want to read it? Concept by Alban Low, further details at Patternotion. (Jan 2013)
