Post 11


> Notes from supposing a space: The detecting subject in Paul Austers 'City Of Glass.'


.'Quinn himself seems to dissolve with the final words of his red notebook...'


'It was as if he were somehow living a posthumous life.'


. Role complicated by the "triad of selves that Quinn had become."


The centre is everywhere, and no circumstance can be drawn until the book has come to its end.


. "detective is the one who looks, listens, who comesw through this morass of objects and events in search of thought..."


. "The world is a text laid bare before the eyes of the master reader, the detective."



Project: Take chapter 9 of City of Glass + produce 3 peices of work....eg- sculpture, painting, print.


> Take 3 conversations in the text...interpret...


> Steal 3 artists...


> Choices...e.g: serious, whimsical, grim etc,,,


Deadline...16th of November.


1st choice artist: Basquiat.
