COLLABORATION in technique: Footage I directed years ago repurposed through AI (runway) into a gold robot, and comped in Resolve.
COLLABORATION with the dancer, director of photography and crew to shoot the footage.
COLLABORATION in concept: Surrealists played the game Exquisite Corpse to stimulate creativity through collaboration.
A game in which each participant takes turns writing or drawing on a sheet of paper, folding it to conceal his or her contribution, then passing it to the next player for a further contribution. Players would contribute to a drawing of a figure w/o seeing what others had done.
“Exquisite Corpse” gained popularity in artistic circles during the 1920s when it was adopted as a technique by artists of the Surrealist movement to generate collaborative compositions.
The name Exquisite Corpse came from a version in which each contributor added a word without knowing the ones that came before, resulting in the bizarre phrase, “The exquisite corpse will drink the new wine.”
