- Reflection Notes
“The impulse to make a self-portrait right after the recording. The image as a record. Thinking of Sands his performalist self-portraits (see one of his Identity Shots on the wall). Thinking of Adrian Piper’s ‘Food for the Spirit’ mirror self-portraits. Since I am often in the role of the observer and recorder (the interviewer, but not the interviewee), I’m usually not present in the process images. The self-portrait as a way to share the person on ‘the other side’ of the microphone.” – RR.
