The Library of Processes: a digital venue for the collection and dissemination of artist processes

“过程图书馆”将调查艺术家如何记录在西沃恩·戴维斯工作室工作的反思和经验的各种方式，以及这些反思如何转化为数字场地的创建。西沃恩·戴维斯工作室于2006年在伦敦南部开业，是西沃恩·戴维斯舞蹈、独立舞蹈和表演艺术实验室以及其他几个艺术组织的所在地。由获奖建筑师Sarah Wigglesworth设计，工作室为表演艺术家举办了一系列由艺术家主导的活动，包括表演、展览、艺术家辩论和对话、电影、装置和全面的参与性活动(课堂、研讨会和实验室)。自开业以来，西沃恩·戴维斯一直热衷于探索不同的方法来记录在工作室工作的艺术家的不同经历，其中一些记录构成了西沃恩·戴维斯舞蹈网站上接力赛网站的一部分。该项目的目的是通过开发一个由艺术家设计的不同过程的集合来进一步扩展接力赛的工作，以使他们的作品和他们对这些过程的思考，并为该集合的公开传播创造一个虚拟场所。这一系列过程将揭示不同作品的基础。该项目的目标是：*建立一个广泛的理论框架，以促进对现有艺术家反思的批判性参与，为工艺流程图书馆的结构和设计提供信息；*对艺术家领导的艺术家建筑以及艺术家和建筑物之间的关系以及它们产生的档案记录进行概述；设计工作时间表，为学生、建筑管理人和在其中工作的艺术家之间的密切合作提供机会；*对为西沃恩·戴维斯接力赛做出贡献的艺术家设计的不同文件模式进行分析，以告知未来艺术家工艺的收集；*并建立一种有效的方法，收集和传播艺术家与其艺术创作过程有关的反思和文件。学生将花时间与项目合作伙伴Siobhan Davies Dance合作，并与在工作室工作的艺术家密切合作。该项目将为学生提供一个难得的机会，与领先的实践者合作，产生一系列独特的初级材料。该项目还将为特约艺术家提供一个宝贵的机会，让他们在如何反思自己的作品方面得到支持。预计这将增加合作机会并鼓励实践社区，涵盖各种艺术实践和从业者，包括表演和视觉艺术家、建筑师、作家、电影制片人和作曲家。通过提供艺术家过程的档案记录，它将为学生、教师、研究人员和其他艺术家提供重要的资源，为原本基本上隐藏的知识生成过程提供洞察力。

The 'Library of Processes' will investigate the various ways in which artists document reflections and experiences of working within an artist venue; Siobhan Davies Studios, and how those reflections can translate to contribute to the creation of a digital venue. Siobhan Davies Studios opened in South London in 2006 and is the home of Siobhan Davies Dance, Independent Dance and Performing Arts Lab alongside several other arts organisations. Designed by award winning architect Sarah Wigglesworth, the Studios host a full schedule of artist-led events including performances, exhibitions, artist debates and conversations, films, installations and a comprehensive range of participatory events (classes, workshops and labs) for performing artists. Since opening, Siobhan Davies has been keen to explore different methods for recording the different experiences of artists who work within the Studios, and a number of those records form part of the Relay site on the Siobhan Davies Dance website. The aim of this project is to extend the work on Relay further by developing a collection of different processes that are devised by artists in order to make their work, and their reflections upon those processes, and to create a virtual venue for the public dissemination of this collection. This body of processes will reveal the foundations of different works. The objectives of the project are to: * establish a broad theoretical framework to facilitate a critical engagement with the existing artist reflections, to inform the structure and design of the library of processes; * produce an overview of artist-led artists' buildings and the relationship between artists and buildings; and the archival records that they generate; devise a schedule of work which provides opportunities for a close collaboration between the student, those who manage the building and the artists who work within it; * provide an analysis of different modes of documentation as devised by artists who have contributed to Siobhan Davies Relay, to inform the future collection of artist processes; * and establish an effective method for the collection and dissemination of artist reflections and documentation in relation to their art making processes. The student will spend time working with the project partner, Siobhan Davies Dance, and in close collaboration with the artists working in the Studios. The project will offer the student a rare opportunity to work with leading practitioners to generate a significant range of unique primary materials. The project will also offer contributing artists a valuable opportunity to be supported in how they reflect on their work. It is anticipated that this will enhance collaborative opportunities and encourage a community of practice, spanning a range of arts practices and practitioners, including performing and visual artists, architects, writers, film-makers and composers. By providing an archival record of artist processes it will offer a significant resource for students, teachers, researchers and other artists, offering insight to an otherwise largely hidden process of knowledge generation.
