✩∿ How to use this tool ∿✩

August 2025

Communicating your work as an artist can be daunting, and it is Very Serious Business. At least, I know I forget everything that I've ever done and worked with whenever someone asks me what my work is about. This tool will not help you communicate what you do better, but it will help you play with communication.

Instructions:

1. Shuffle to get an imaginary situation where you're a different artist inspired by a specific medium through a specific aesthetic.
Note: Some of these terms are taken from the Cari Institute, so if you're confused about some of them, you can search for the term in their website. Some of them might be context-specific, so feel free to search for them on google.

2. Use whatever medium makes sense to you to create an artifact that communicates your imaginary work. Design artifacts may include: a flyer from your fake show, a micro-website that accompanies your fake installation, ephemera, etc.
