What is a thing? A thing is the sum of all these facets:

• Things have facets
• These facets are “called” by other facets
• We see some facets of things only
• Therefore we only “see” parts of things
• Things are all of these facets (then, now, to be)
• These facets does not equal the thing, just how things see the thing
• Facets constitute (are) relations
• Relations are “make” network
• Non-fiction (not documentary, that’s already too far involved in very specific matters of concern) is about ways ti address the world creatively to make knowledge claims about the world.
• If things have facets then stories are one small set of possible facets (as is meaning).
• How can we make certain non-fiction that addresses the world that is able to think with facets.

“What is a thing? A thing is a sum of facets.” – Adrian

• Documentary are small facets.

Today in the studio I learnt that cataloging can be one of the techniques used when creating a list. I had assumed that but I wasn’t sure, I’m glad that Adrian cleared that up. Even a grocery list can be a form of cataloging. It’s so simple to to understand but I didn’t really know that before this class today.
