I noticed that I have been getting a lot more picky with how the text works together. So picky to the point where I will take an eternity on one page moving around the type until I'm satisfied with how it looks. Then I'll go back to edit it again and not be happy with how it turns out. Working on future pages, I think I should just get as many pages done as I can AND THEN go back to pick on the smaller details because I feel like I could be using my time more efficiently than I am now.

slow, inefficient and picky is good. it means that the solution will come naturally, rather than imposed by pre-conception. maybe one haiku can have several versions, like plum blossoms falling through air, moving in relation to each other.
ReplyDeleteone way to work is with cut-out words, and even letters, moving around with tweezers until satisfying relationships/juxtapositions occur.
photograph these (the paper need not even be perfectly flat). thus, shadows, light will play a rôle (and assert the momentary contingency of any so-called "solution").
