extract

“I am a black box, an abstract device evolved to hide the complexities within. Given the appropriate stimulus, I can be triggered to display a transient pop-up model of my inner self and disclose a little of what would otherwise remain secret.”
 

 

 

transcript of an interview

An art process is something of an engineered course of action, fused by language inputted to something made, through carefully balanced models of communication. David Riley, the artist, arises from over thirty years of specialist experience and self-taught knowledge, the veracity of which invents an embedded and systematic creative practice.

So what happens after the duration of David's BA expires: does the 'system engineer' evolve to an artist having been taught 'how' for four years, or did he simply already know?

books as art

All current books are self-published at blurb.com. Each book should be considered an art work rather than a conventional book. Revad sees the book as a highly appropriate and useful medium for recording a serial idea and the derived outcomes.
