“There is no archive without a place of consignation, without a technique of repetition, and without a certain exteriority. No archive without outside.”
(From “Archive Fever”, J. Derrida)
These are just a few lines to say that I don’t consider the archive as a means of explaining the essence of what I do but as a work in its own right (whereas usually it is seen as a system of things documenting the body of a lifetime’s work).
To look at this topic in more detail, go to the chapter called ‘Archiving one-selph’.
