About the book >.>.> THE COLLABORATIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS BOOK ARE DIFFERENT FORMS OF MATERIAL thinking. Material thinking occurs in the making of works of art. It happens when the artist dares to ask the simple but far-reaching questions What matters? What is the material of thought? To ask these questions is to embark on an intellectual adventure peculiar to the making process. Critics and theorists interested in communicating ideas about things cannot emulate it. They remain outsiders interpreters on the sidelines usually trying to make sense of a creative process afterwards purely on the basis of its outcome. They lack access to the process and more fundamentally they lack the vocabulary to explicate its intellectual character. For their part film-makers choreographers installation artists and designers feel equally tongue-tied: knowing that what they make is an invention that cannot easily be put into words they find their creative research dumbed-down.
