How can we expect clear guidelines for students in a free form as the essay? How do you teach this free form without restricting the end- form?
Hi, I'm Emily Huurdeman. I'm an artist, researcher and educator.
I'd say on average I'm about 55% artist, 25% researcher and 20% educator.
There is a 3% car mechanic in me and a 2% sommelier. Although yesterday I felt about 35% educator and next Friday I'll feel about 80% car mechanic.
These modes are always and constantly in flux with each other as they are probably for you
I am part my grand aunt, part my grandmother, part adopted pit bull mum and part high school dropout.
Historically the essay starts with Montagnas bundle of free books a size. He never truly finished his 107 writings. He kept changing, adding, adapting, assaying.
In the essay you use fragmented theory anecdotes, quotes, thoughts, emotions, observations to investigate a topic, combining very personal and autobiographical fragments with intellectual insight.
The topics range vastley, for instance on anger, on vanity, on friendship, on smells, on cicero, sceneca and plutarc.
In this research I will investigate if the essay can get out of its solitude practice and become a collective process. It will also investigate if the essay can get out of its definition struggles and become a performative vessel for transdisciplinary artistic research practices.
Not focusing on the end form, but on the process of assaying, utilizing the iterative and critical force of the essay form jumps to posing many different sources and perspectives.
For this I am develloping a method/tool/workshop in collaboration
