LOG #6 - Content vs Architecture

A. Content

  1. Time-space-photos - 12 pm photographs were taken in two places: Trondheim and Veidholmen, both on the West coast of Norway. They were all taken around midnight, between 11:XY pm and 12:WZ pm.

  2. Poetry-text – Jorge Sousa Braga wrote 10 short poems for the project. There are as well a small text written by theatre and film director Jorge Silva Melo and a small text I wrote myself about the project

B. Site architecture

Taking into account the two main driving forces behind 12pm photographic project, identified previously:

  • the idea of travel, a journey through space and time
  • the close dialogue between photography and poetry

The site will be built around a set of axis in a 3D space:

  • a time axis around 12 pm
  • a space axis covering the 2 locations
  • a poetic axis (crossing time-space plan)

This 3D system (see diagram below) will allow visiting the site, according to a three-dimensional movement in a 3D space. Special points in this 3D space, where space and time axis cross (12pm points), will be links to the 2 texts describing the project, mine and Jorge Silva Melos’s. The special point where poetic axis crosses time-space plan will be a link to the technical information about the project and the book.
