Relation to you as a maker
- maker->object<-audience - they find the object - perhaps its been left somewhere.
- maker ->object->audience
- maker-> object-> audience multiple and various - who are these different audiences - what do they consume? why do they consume it? placing 'objects' in 'boxes' - think about what all these things actually mean?
- maker -> audience-> maker-> object-> audience - participation, interaction, workshop or creation, demonstration, commercial, commision, is it specific or random, is it audience generated or artist-generated, who takes ownership, does it become a collaboration, can input be claimed as collaboration, how much input makes it a collaboration, who is then credited, is it still the artists work, what happens with remuneration, what happens when its deemed successful or unsuccessful, where does it go during or after,
- maker-><- object-> audience - manipulation of the object, is the maker the audience of the object, is the object being changed after its been released in to the world, has the work failed or was it inbuilt to the object to be changed/returned, does it change over time, series or not fixed over time, like a signature piece that is always related to you
- maker->object-><-audience - maker releases the object, the audience then returns the object or participates in it, changes it, relational aesthetics,
- maker->object audience
- ->audience - a different audience than expected, failure or success, a different type of success, changing the audience may be a part if the process, taking control and changing your audience,
maker->object->audience->maker->object - - experiment, audience inspires the artist to make a new object - communication, a type of rebellion, the object you really wanted to make but you needed to make the first object to lead to the making of the second object, a prototype,
maker->object->audience->maker->object ->audience---- iterations, a feedback loop with the audience, can you be the audience and the maker, can you be the maker and the object, could be insular,
maker->object->audience->object->maker - audience can affect the object and return it to the maker after it has been consumed, participation project, the audience changes the object actively but it is still attributed to the maker, does it have positive or negative connotations, scale of the audience has an effect on the object, triggering more making, supermarket capitalism?!
maker->object<-Audience - the first one? repeated? maker acts as facilitator for the project so the audience makes the artwork, who is in charge, the audience finds the object, is it another maker audience, public artwork, equal share with audience and maker, the object already has a relationship with the audience, serendipity, a moment, who would initiate the meeting or the be in control, it doesn't become an object until it is decided by someone that it is.
(triangle) audience<=>object<=>maker<=>
the fourth plinth - it already is an object but then commisioned to be added to and reviewed by a panel,
commision process - a conversation between audience, maker to create the desired object
maker<=> multiple audiences confined in to one circle - -- the object is missing, the audiences look different but they are the same, a conversation, podcast, panel, Q&A, a website, consumption of the artist themselves, art fair, pre-object, teaching, post-making, presentation, gathering of information,
maker<=> participants (in a large circle)----- performance, do you need an audience to make a performance piece, are participants making or are they sitting there?
maker-> participants -> objects------ workshop, teaching creation, artist studio, assistants, live moment and the object is the documentation, 4th plinth with Antony Gormley,

links to netflix handmade diagrams- get link from les for the diagrams - Limitless
my diagram was fairly simple in respect of reading whereas other members were very complex with a lot of links to various audiences, objects, makers and participants - did I need to add the threads? perhaps not but it felt right for me as the materials were next to the desk, if it was a digital diagram I would have created an animation, so express my desires and my thoughts. Why do I second guess the way I express myself - is this why I placed these distances in?
in break - make diagrams of the world we aspire to as a creative person -
