This issue of Field Notes (Index_25): Issue 11 was designed as a supplement to Reconstructed Site: Geography (as Memory Device) with Rock Flats, a multimedia installation at University of Massachusetts, Lowell, as part of —graphies, by Radius Collective (Jan 21–March 8, 2025).
 
Reconstructed Site: Geography (as Memory Device) with Rock Flats is a collection of multimedia works that began in early 2020 when I was Artist-in-Residence at Skaftfell Center for Visual Art in Seyðisfjörður, Iceland. Memory Device is a collection of time-based memories. The video is accompanied by immersive audio crafted by CK Field from my personal field recordings. Rocks is a body of handcrafted forms constructed with air dry clay, and inspired by the vesicular basalt that surrounded the fjord where I resided at that time. Rock Flats were constructed for this exhibition using Oriented Strand Board, air dry clay, and hardware. Referencing stage flats, which are large flat pieces of theatrical scenery used to create an illusion of context and depth, this rock wall examines the accuracy of memories and our recollections of particular moments in time and place. 
 
Field Notes (Index_25): Issue 11 is a 4-page, folding digital tabloid broadsheet printed on 80gsm bright recycled paper (289 x 380 mm). The publication contains site-specific photography, illustration, and writing.
