Alien phenomenology – everything is alien to everything else.

Stop viewing things as ‘snapshots’.

Expansion of relations.

The artefact beholds the maker – not a photographer without a photograph with your name on it.

What’s the difference between ontography and typology? Ontography rejects that things belong in one place (like library classification.)

It is impossible to identify all relations things have to one another, that’s why they’re all alien to each other.

Instead of thinking of things as a fixed entity, think about where they will be in 10–100 years.

We are just containers for our DNA and once you pass reproductive age your body starts to break down because you’re no longer needed.

Make lists that arrive from specific constraints.

Oulipo.

Find a constraint upfront and follow it.

Better work after surrendering some of your agency to your technology.

Ecology

Our agency is a participant in an ecology.

Documentary as a way of trying to listen to something instead of imposing ourselves on it.

Sound file to image, image file to sound.

Technical media can record accidents whereas writing can not.

What can the image track become for the sound track rather than just service it?
