reading week 8

poetic form is about openness, abstraction, ambivalence

aesthetic encounter is the primary means of expression

the spectator is able to to create relationships between non-linear segments

components are gathered and assembled in a logic that can be thematic, topical or based on place but there still remains a loose relationship between the parts

each new part adds to the overall understanding or concept but the narrative will always still lack closure or completeness

montage gives rise to new meanings out of the combination of smaller segments
