-Animation and Animism+===== Animation and Animism =====
  
-some notes+OBJECTIVE
  
-  some stuff +**What is it?** To design an experience in which human subjectivity is felt as a temporary pattern that emerges from the interaction of human and nonhuman forces at a multiplicity of spatial and temporal scales. 
-  *+ 
 +**What does it do?** To expose how there is something magical in being animated by so many “codes,” and to find consistency among them. Maintaining the magic, animated layers is also deeply political: How dare you reduce me to one plane/code/meaning system?! [magical = irreducible?
 + 
 +**Why do it?** Political stakes: We live in in a world in which there is increasingly only one coding system – neoliberalism. It’s political proposition to open up us up to a multiplicity of planes. This is reclaiming the many scales that animate us. It is reclaiming the magic of anthropos.

 +====Design Process==== 
 + 
 +facilitated by Maja Kuzmanovic and Nik Gaffney 
 + 
 +  * Free-form conversation about individual and collective wishes of the family, understanding of the content, context, expectations,​ etc. 
 +  * [[:futurist_fieldguide/affinity_map|Affinity mapping]] to uncover connections and diversity of points of view on (japanese) animism, arising from individual interests of the residents 
 +  * Scoping the work using the [[:futurist_fieldguide/growth_model|GROW]] model from business coaching 
 +  * [[:futurist_fieldguide/moodboards|Moodboarding]] to tap into the visual thinking and get a sense of what the outcome might feel like 
 +  * Conversation based on the discovery phase of [[:futurist_fieldguide/appreciative_inquiry_interviews|appreciative inquiry]] to uncover the qualities of the performative experiment the residents would like to design (sensations,​ actions/​experiences,​ environment…) 
 +  * Individual exercise to find images, quotes, sounds, examples of lived experience etc. that would evoke the atmosphere of the experience the residents would like to create. 
 +  * After getting a good sense of the qualities and atmospheres of the experience, we moved onto more or less classical brainstorming (coming up with ideas and building on them, without discarding anything outright - using the improvisational technique of "yes and" and avoiding sentences starting with "yes but" ​ 
 +  * Discussion about the follow-up process including documentation,​ user journeys, experience prototyping and possible models for sustainable collaboration between philosophers and artists/​designers possibly modelled as a temporary atelier. The residents agreed to write up their experience of the residency, the process and the outcomes. 
 +  * The children had their own creative process, guided by Rasa Alksnyte including watching Japanese anime, compositing physical '​spirits'​ they created from found objects and plants with photographs taken in the city, collaging written stories, photos and drawings based on a game of '​exquisite corpse'​. ​ 
 +  * Throughout the residency, socialising,​ communal meals and interaction between the whole family and all of the FoAM collaborators was an important part of the process. 
 + 
 +==== References and Reading ==== 
 + 
 +  * Blog post by Stacey describing the content of the residency: [[http://fo.am/blog/2015/10/18/animation-animism/|Animation and Animism]] 
 +  * Papapetros, Spyros. On the animation of the inorganic: art, architecture, and the extension of life. 
 + 
 +==== Other... ==== 
 + 
 +  * [[:the_animist_paradox|the animist paradox]], [[category animation]] 
 +  * etc.
