︎ The lecture is knowledge in bodily presence. If the body is something corporeal which carries these knowledges, than what kind of attentiveness allows us to attend to the lectures of rocks? of various objects? of plants? of paintings? What can be said of the birdsong in the mornings which call our attention to the breaching of the sun over the horizon? The work is built in questions, and these are some which guide the production of various works under the banner of lectures. Sculpture, bookmaking, writing, performing: all lectures. Thing as an event, and an event as a thing. How would a stone give a lecture?
︎ I am a lecturer. Sculptural logic(s) invest the lectures with actions of assemblage, stacking, assortment, attachment, installation—things as things and components in conversation. The lectures understand knowledge is contingent, something embedded in the political, the social, and the theoretical. Another question: how do these manifest in spell like speech acts? Another: what role could this have in better understanding neurodivergent socialities and their possibilities?
