WRITTEN ART PROJECT
Create a disjunctive or non-narrative piece
that engages all three aspects of reality that we have been
discussing throughout the quarter: 1) larger political, social, and
economic realities 2) personal or human dramatic situation and
3) detritus of existence. Make sure each of these are well
represented and that they do not merely serve as a backdrop or
props for other parts of your piece. In other words, make sure
each of these aspects of reality is given its due as determining
of your or others reality.
Possible Strategies and Advice:
Switch between first and third person perspectives. Make use of
actual seeings—what you see. Describe and only occasionally
explain or meditate. Meditate a great deal but be sure you are
specific . Enact and don’t preach.
Create a concept (a title for your piece) that gives the reader a
sense of the intent of your work.
This concept should serve to suggest complementary or
conflictual relations between the different parts of your piece.
Ultimately in placing all your parts together, in proximity to
one another, you want the “whole” to be greater than the sum of
the parts.

you say in the first chapter that there is a rifle hanging on the
wall, in the second or third chapter it absolutely must go off. If
it’s not going to be fired, it shouldn’t be hanging there.
