Diaries, Notes and Sketches

Created March 2020 during the Corona Virus crisis, this website serves as a document of our work during the semester–done under the unusual circumstances of “social distancing”, home office, quarantine, loneliness, joy, fear, sickness, health… With Jonas Mekas’s film Diaries, Notes and Sketches (also known as Walden) from 1968 as an inspiration, the site unifies our various levels of work with the conditions of our everyday lives, with diaries, notes and sketches drawing lines to other perhaps more complete projects.
