Description
Summary:This experimental paper, ‘Interview with Self’, is not so much the findings of a research project, but rather the continuing process of it. It is part of an auto-ethnographic study of the creative making process, presented here in its unedited form as an example of a methodology and as an artefact of practice. The use of digital technologies and platforms for the auto-ethnography created spaces for reflection and alternative ways to observe and document both reflection and artistic production. My relationship to my own making was therefore mediated through technology. This enabled me to distance myself from what I was doing by becoming a spectator and experience a new intimacy with my work through seeing and hearing what usually went unnoticed.
