What do I think of club relay?
I think of every medium as a canvas, with its own rules. I want to play with the ruleset, I want to try an unexpected move, I want to test the boundaries to find the thing that ticks the right boxes. It's not about expression for me, it's about tinkering.
I like what we have here, it's novel and brings back the most interesting collections that have been made on Relay in a format that is immediately familiar.
When Josh Petty writes 'technology is downstream from culture', he reveals that he is not a creator. Technology is a tool, and things are built with hammers and saws, not 'culture'. Culture is just what the suits, nerds, and tech bros come up with after it's already happened. They are always late; they are like gentrifying developers.
What we have here is a rudimentary tool but it is revealing a certain kind of timelessness that is both contemporary and futuristic. It is a nice thing to innovate on 'the timeline', something which I didn't think would happen and definitely not in such a simple way.
Like anything, we are usually better off when we think 'via negativa' - negative space, removing what is bad rather than trying to add add add in excess.
It's going up on Club Relay!
