The Librarian of Rare Things by Hulki Okan Tabak
100 editions minted on KnownOrigin, November 2022, Dada Dreams concept
Given my state of my mind, things and thoughts revert back to libraries. A personal deep significance about a location where I felt comfortable not only reading but breathing. I guess. Sometime memories are tricky. Sometimes we make up the tales that make us up. The Librarian here is quite experienced and riddled with surprises. And part of the story is P making an appearance, hat tip sir to your profound impact on our lives.
Going through a dark period within and without, my experimentation urge and capacity is heightened. It's possibly a lifeline to latch on. Creation nowadays controls my disorder and gives meaning. Dada Dreams is an experiment to reflect some of my darker thoughts into AI assisted visual outputs. Among the completed pieces so far, I've gone between extensively edited GIFs and relatively untouched stills. Inspiration for the project was primarily the Dada movement.
