Assembly instructions: (Tangential Logick, tangential Magick), 2008


Assembly Instructions is a loose structure of associations, created
from Xerox photocopies of books, pictures sourced from Flickr,
Wikipedia, and other materials. The individual collages are arranged
in framed grids ranging from a dozen to hundreds of examples, all
connected by hand-drawn, pencil dots. Tangential Logick looks at the system of thought of the psychedelic, the mentally ill and of dreamers, explored as a pyramid of linear, logical associations expanded upon to form giant, unwieldy structures of thought, which collapse upon the dreamer's waking, like a house of cards. Tangential Magick explores the conventions of magic tricks that are rooted in chains of cause and effect.
