Abstract
A journey through thread landscapes that emerge from the manipulation, like embroidered texts, of quotes from various authors on the act of storytelling. Abstract textile graphics that allow us to weave together a fictional narrative that imagines the members of the Kontu Laborategia research group as adventurers on the frontiers of academic storytelling. Writing methods that twist reality so we can refer back to it: the automatic writing of the surrealists, the use of self-imposed rules to enhance creativity of the Oulipo group, and speculative fiction to visualize and explore a common goal.
Representing. Presenting again. Falling in love with representation from another perspective, not from the perspective of a single, expert and authoritative voice, but from the perspective of multiple voices, from the babblings of those who are not experts in stitching and unstitching but who have their own particular mode of unconscious expression. Questioning the stories behind the stories of intellectual productions as a way of revealing the who, what, and for whom.
This text consists of a first part with a fictional story of a literary nature, generated from the textile materials created in the workshop «Hear, sew and tell» by researchers from Kontu Laborategia; a second part that attempts to share the «source code» of this creative process by analyzing it in a way closer to an academic essay; and a final part of experimental rupture by offering to do our work to an AI.
