The Archive

29/05/2003
Knowledge is suspect. What is it to 'know' something, anyway? Knowledge presupposes a verifiable truth, a certainty and a defined position. The Archive is a way of storing information, of capturing 'knowledge', testing it and seeing what can be done with it. Knowledge is powerful, but only within a certain context. The Archive is not a way of accumulating power, but it is a reservoir of knowledge, without context, but potentially very powerful. The Archive is like a battery or accumulator.

The Archive can never be complete; this archive will expand as my work continues to evolve, but an archive can never be the sum of all the elements of a person.
