LM: M-M-A-E

An unfolding artist book in 3 volumes and 7 parts (and counting). Edition of 200 per part in each volume/sample.

LM: M-M-A-E is a paper “Petri dish” of sorts where partners-in-research Eva Meyer Keller and Ilya Noé have been culturing material generated by, with, around and alongside the stage piece “Living Matters”. In it, working notes, studio/lab protocols, excerpts of conversations, journal entries, and a manifold of other kinds of matter(s) and contaminants, are mixed, remixed, and allowed to slowly reproduce and transform. Without meaning to be in any way a comprehensive nor a conclusive account of things —but rather a sample of a still-ongoing mitotic process—  this “living” document is leakily organised around four research areas (Medium, Material, Apparatus and Experiments) and will remain available to further iterations and mutations.
