The presentation will focus on a case study collaborative artists’ book, RE: Infinite Dialogue (2023) and the background context and individual concerns. The research focused on designing a practice-based method centred on the artists’ book edition as a visual verbatim facsimile. The initiating concept and conceptual anchor to the project centred on the etymology of the prefix Re-. As a facsimile, each iterative edition revisited, reused, and reassembled, making visible the traces of individual interpretations and interventions as well as the technologies and materials deployed in the process of collaboration. The collaboration started with Richard Nash, whose practice centres on artists’ publishing, undertaking a process of analysing, documenting and decontextualising a cross-section of work spanning 15 years from Gary Clough’s sketchbook practice. Taking a collaborative and multi-modal approach, a series of four iterative editions were developed following a cyclical method involving three phases: 1) transcription and documentation, 2) constellation and translation, and 3) publication.
