Samatha is my 5th closure exam. The topic was interaction and the subtopic redesign of the book. My take was to rethink the way how we work or use books. So I made an audio-video installation with a little bit of video mapping where you could witness the destruction of book that I created and cared about for weeks. The whole process packs a meditation subtone. Information from the book is extracted by destroying it. That's because the pages of the book are made from different kinds of papers so they create a slightly different sound every time you jerk a page so the final information extracted is some kind of experimental composition. Installation is side specific. I worked with the angle of the walls of the staircase that reminds me of an angel in witch is a book when its reed.
