MATERIAL, SLIPPAGE, MONTAGE. How can notes be re-edited to become keys?

To edit means to engage with material, be it text, sound or moving image. To build relations and a rhythm, to enter conversations, to listen and understand the potential the material contains. An editor operates through the in between, which can be a powerful place from which the grammar of linking past and present, predicate and subject could be challenged and reinvented. To expose continuity as a construction, not to nurture an illusion. To edit requires decision making while building connections, juxtapositions, to exclude and include, to construct a narrative through montage as opposed to storytelling. A biographical informed journey through frameworks, magazines, spacial montages with an editing-perspective. A proposal to think through associations, dialectics and rhythms suggested by the material. “Imagine the editor being a Third World vanguard person.”
