sink to win

Let me begin with a system of working. Simon Starling has 2 projects that kind of bookmark ways of making for me, ShedBoatShed and autoxylopyrocycloboros. autoxylopyrocycloboros is a project where he steamed a boat out into a loch in Scotland. He began to saw the wooden boat into pieces to feed to the steam engine. 3 plus hours later they sank in the loch.


ShedBoatShed - he disassembled a shed, build a boat, sailed it, disassembled the boat, and then made a shed. Good animation here.

Sometimes it takes a dismantling of objects to find the tickle.
