How can the development of personalized language be supported through a survey of visual experience? Interacting with any system asks us to formulate a reaction to the structures of reality. My research into participatory learning explores three trajectories; Individuality, Coincidence, and Survey. Linguistic norms, such as reading from left to right, or segregating vernacular abbreviations and compounds with hyphens or apostrophes, "Real-time," can be an appropriate analog to the perceptive aspect of objective painting. The record of observation is an abstraction, a shorthand, activating its representation, establishing a colloquial understanding. This vernacular is applied while working objectively. How does this language impose meaning when presented to an audience? What is this vernacular able to distill? Stenography is the seminal operation of abstraction. To foster the individual development of personalized stenographics is to expand a structure for progressive conception and, at the same time, allow contradictions to occur.;I will conduct a material investigation through time-lapse photography of my painting process and two days of community events. The paintings are created from observation as a durational and regimented task that manifests on, or in, a surface through its interpretive sensory record.
