Deploying 16mm, analogue photography, sound archiving and creative writing, On Weaving considers High Sunderland from a multitude of perspectives, as a cinematic framing device, a structure and organism through which to understand dynamic processes of change. The film encompasses the familial and the seasonal, as well as the textile designs of twentieth-century Eastern European émigrés, amelioration and conservation, macro and micro expressions of climate and landscape, and the broader historical legacies of the Kleins and the Scottish Borders’ textiles heritage. <img width="2460" height="1634" width_o="2460" height_o="1634" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d088a26bea230e0ebdbad6083b7c0c4f42d15cdefaa78abca0d3af948636ecb4/OnWeavingStill.png" data-mid="241252740" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d088a26bea230e0ebdbad6083b7c0c4f42d15cdefaa78abca0d3af948636ecb4/OnWeavingStill.png" /><img width="6144" height="4096" width_o="6144" height_o="4096" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b71ad491d6614c72575985fd76c6a0cb450a938819df518923184ef14bf87930/000006-copy-2.JPG" data-mid="241253014" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b71ad491d6614c72575985fd76c6a0cb450a938819df518923184ef14bf87930/000006-copy-2.JPG" /> <img width="6144" height="4096" width_o="6144" height_o="4096" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2abbff0474b43067e678bb5a6fb0134fcd5bb04343ccc991750ad5be8226b284/000051.JPG" data-mid="241253015" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2abbff0474b43067e678bb5a6fb0134fcd5bb04343ccc991750ad5be8226b284/000051.JPG" /> <img width="6144" height="4096" width_o="6144" height_o="4096" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/178171aa27afab22075375e5e2fc01eb78879319c35bb3c15a603d9744c87e92/000056.JPG" data-mid="241253030" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/178171aa27afab22075375e5e2fc01eb78879319c35bb3c15a603d9744c87e92/000056.JPG" /><img width="6144" height="4096" width_o="6144" height_o="4096" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f245f67dbcb03d31dfbbf930ed2e404457efaa74dc6f2ff10ab2767a32ad1782/000058.JPG" data-mid="241253017" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f245f67dbcb03d31dfbbf930ed2e404457efaa74dc6f2ff10ab2767a32ad1782/000058.JPG" /><img width="480" height="640" width_o="480" height_o="640" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fd1c03782d1f6cdd2053543331c2a36e03a3a7d42595f717a470365b99bbc1df/IMG_2694.jpeg" data-mid="241253110" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/480/i/fd1c03782d1f6cdd2053543331c2a36e03a3a7d42595f717a470365b99bbc1df/IMG_2694.jpeg" />Images: Corin Sworn and Luke Fowler&nbsp; https://corinsworn.com/Moving-in-Relation Mon, 01 Dec 2025 08:39:00 +0000 Corin Sworn https://corinsworn.com/Moving-in-Relation MOVING IN RELATION&nbsp; 160 x 240mm, 80 pages, Colour printing, Perfect bound, Softcover, Edition of 300, 2024 This new publication brings together Corin Sworn’s five-part investigative series of the same name, presented by The Common Guild from 2021–2023.

Shaped by shared interests re-presented in the context of “work” our emails accumulate against, or with one another. Time becomes a generous sort of constraint, we commit in order to produce as a gesture which extends outwards. The restriction of deadlines, finding time, making and breaking commitments impress the spikey, and enjoyable processes of collaboration. Do our collaborations become about performing together or how well we perform our individual parts? The latest iteration of Strange Transmissions generated pictures in image and text alongside Lucy Lippard’s novel I See/You Mean (1979). The Lippard text as a propositional form, reflects and indeed suggests a means to think a latticework of emotions: thinking together while we share and don’t share particularities of place and experience. It allows difference/togetherness amid the collection of fragments in its "sensuous grid". <img width="4259" height="3187" width_o="4259" height_o="3187" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/81ca10c133585364f8ed1cc01ab7eca2b8d58055ecbc5f0d89e8f9678f7a8a56/ISeeJudeb.jpg" data-mid="241207169" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/81ca10c133585364f8ed1cc01ab7eca2b8d58055ecbc5f0d89e8f9678f7a8a56/ISeeJudeb.jpg" /> <img width="5054" height="3255" width_o="5054" height_o="3255" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cd698e0775fc02a660e33350738422b03edf72cf2a030e5bf45d16ba92a6c020/ISeeCorinb.jpg" data-mid="241207308" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cd698e0775fc02a660e33350738422b03edf72cf2a030e5bf45d16ba92a6c020/ISeeCorinb.jpg" /> https://corinsworn.com/Prototype-5 Mon, 15 Apr 2024 10:51:28 +0000 Corin Sworn https://corinsworn.com/Prototype-5 Prototype 5 July 2023 Poetry contributions for the fifth instalment of Prototype’s annual anthology: “a space for new work, open to all and free from formal guidelines or restrictions.

Both sound and image are dispersed across the exhibition space, creating a broad sensorial address. The video, ‘A Fuzzy Set’ (2023) presents a history of motion capture that aligns organic movement, such as gesture, to machinic ordering systems. Dancers are shown, testing the functional limits of video in AI enabled CCTV security systems that identify potential ‘life' through movement. Inventions by Charles Rees Wilson, Frank and Lillian Gilbreth, and Marie Van Brittan Brown are presented as precursors of contemporary motion capture, in each case this moves the devices away from the inventor’s initial intention. ‘A Fuzzy Set’ examines divergent forms of motion capture, challenging 20th century notions of efficiency as ‘the one best way.’&nbsp; Stills - A Fuzzy Set <img width="2880" height="1800" width_o="2880" height_o="1800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/64be0e78355f969dfd46645da1a19000ae15eab29b83cea82ee8066c10f806d0/39.-Inverted-crouched-figure-windows-.png" data-mid="208978892" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/64be0e78355f969dfd46645da1a19000ae15eab29b83cea82ee8066c10f806d0/39.-Inverted-crouched-figure-windows-.png" /><img width="2880" height="1800" width_o="2880" height_o="1800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/743a2dbdc86ebdc8afe71e2feb7f5e8615ed7f325e0c080772af901cfa14f0f2/20.-Windows-with-flying-bird.png" data-mid="208978884" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/743a2dbdc86ebdc8afe71e2feb7f5e8615ed7f325e0c080772af901cfa14f0f2/20.-Windows-with-flying-bird.png" /><img width="2880" height="1800" width_o="2880" height_o="1800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8d3e99064d04e01f898a883578b721ef8c5c0e674393344d9596edeb1fd421d3/27.-Tiled-floor-window-reflection.png" data-mid="208978887" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8d3e99064d04e01f898a883578b721ef8c5c0e674393344d9596edeb1fd421d3/27.-Tiled-floor-window-reflection.png" /> Details - In Reflection, Shimmer <img width="4480" height="6720" width_o="4480" height_o="6720" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1f11b8cc9c2e200d47d8c91e521808d1d3d7a976dd3403bd0302e1c29ad0777b/CGCommonGuildOwl.jpg" data-mid="208978937" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1f11b8cc9c2e200d47d8c91e521808d1d3d7a976dd3403bd0302e1c29ad0777b/CGCommonGuildOwl.jpg" /> <img width="2880" height="1800" width_o="2880" height_o="1800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0e72a75fc2c251a74e967fe664be546f0b5e1ba3d45ba8c8e07644620dfb16e0/50.-Inverted-mobile-phones-hands.png" data-mid="208978897" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0e72a75fc2c251a74e967fe664be546f0b5e1ba3d45ba8c8e07644620dfb16e0/50.-Inverted-mobile-phones-hands.png" /><img width="849" height="566" width_o="849" height_o="566" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/07b138162a5eaeffd4ea560a586069f52de522258e89fd5fccf4d9810af2574e/21_Corin_Sworn_In-Reflection-Shimmer.jpg" data-mid="208978923" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/849/i/07b138162a5eaeffd4ea560a586069f52de522258e89fd5fccf4d9810af2574e/21_Corin_Sworn_In-Reflection-Shimmer.jpg" /> ‘In Reflection, Shimmer’ is the final instalment of Corin Sworn’s project ‘Moving in Relation’, a series of events exploring social relations with ‘smart’ technologies: AI-enabled, consumer-grade products that attempt to learn and produce data from interactions with humans. Each instalment of ‘Moving in Relation’ has sought new ways of engaging and understanding technological systems and algorithmic thought. Over the course of an extended period of research Sworn brought together various collaborators in movement, sound, poetry and academia to establish ways of approaching and living with networked technology and machine learning devices. Attempting to apprehend these now ubiquitous devices on human terms, Sworn explores AI behaviours in emotive and playful ways, observing our intimate and attentive relationships with automatic tools.'Moving in Relation' began in 2021 with 'eco-co-location', a live one-off performance exploring encounters with algorithmic thought that took place in a vacant office space within a suburban business park. ‘This Harmonic Chamber’, Sworn’s second performance – an incomplete, future film taking shape as a performance lecture with experimental sound – was presented in 2022 in a 19th century loom shed. Further encounters in the series have included an interview with political philosopher Louise Amoore, and ‘The Virtual Boulevard’ – a gathering of poets from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Glasgow to work across geographies and alongside AI translation systems, supported by online tools for communication. Collaborators working with Sworn have included Luke Fowler, Jer Reid, Claricia Parinussa, Cecelia Pavon, SPAM Zine &amp; Press, George Hampton Wale, and Guy Veal.

Clouds, employed as signifiers of data storage, insinuate connection between the material world and the complex concealed processes of corporate industries which, while remaining hidden and obscured, present as insubstantial, almost transcendent, ephemeral non-places. Yet clouds, as shape shifting systems of condensation, have also long served as playful sites for shape spotting and make believe. As such, they can also speak to algorithmic machines which in a similar way, condense data whilst seeking to extrude patterns. These machines do so largely through correlation and abduction, seeking plausible generative associations without recourse to verification. To engage these (in)operative metaphors and their associated processes Parinussa and Sworn have spent a period working into the affective qualities of feedback, delay and orientation amid systems that distribute sensation and trouble connection with echo. This is the first in a series of five events entitled ‘Moving in Relation’ through which Sworn continues to research human interrelationships with technology. Working with dancers, academics and 'robot vision' equipped cameras, Sworn is developing a discursive and experimental event series that explores algorithmic thought, datafication and their influence on physical bodies while seeking to make obscure knowledge immanent and palpable.

Through a deconstruction of the formal tactics of the lecture, Sworn describes a history that disconnects empirical philosophy from contemporary physics, uncoupling relations between knowledge, idiosyncrasy and sensory experience.&nbsp; In parallel, the sonic performance foregrounds a physical experience of sound&nbsp; through resonance and echoe, building time as palpably vibrating and cyclical. ‘This Harmonic Chamber’ is entangled in dichotomies of the material and immaterial, and speculation and sensation. The performance lecture teases out experiences of wavering uncertainty felt both bodily and mentally.
