Project: The Session (The Obsession Issue)
Date: March 2009
My Little Underground: Concept / Contribution
The Session is a collective of eight international designers and artists, all graduates of the Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. The Session does not work with a standard form or a recurrent basic theme, but produces on the basis of a regular process. The Session takes place for one day every second month, during which works around a specific theme are being made. The group uses different methods and media, from drawing to research to songwriting. This means that every issue will look different, that every issue will be compiled with a different approach and produced in a different way, testing out formats and techniques. Per session, one of the eight artists and designers determine the theme. This person is then also responsible for the editing, the design, production and finding new contributors. For their Obsession Issue, I once again collaborated with Nicole Martens. Our contribution consisted of a stalker-themed letter, using existing stalkernotes. Creepy but effective.
