'Record' Project: Journal, Valeska Soares and Conversations.

I was looking through my journal and I came across this piece of found material I discovered in a road. The way the letter stamps were clumped together reminded me of an artist called Valeska Soares I came across in a book I was reading in the library.

(piece of paper I found in the road).

Valeska Soares looked at a project where she collected hundreds of love letters and deconstructed them.

I started thinking about my own project, and the sounds I have been recording and began to think about words and conversations. From this I started deconstructing my own conversations.

"What shall we do?"

"I don't know".

"Alternatively I had another idea, which was to..."

I love how these came out and I think it would be really interesting to pursue this idea. I will have to record many more conversations. I think lettering is something I've avoided before and could actually really benefit my work. Also, in terms of focusing in on one aspect of the theme I think this could be a good place to start.
