FELT BOOK
Borrowing the structure of Fluxus scores, YouTube tutorials, eHow articles, technical diagrams, home remedies, etc., the Felt Book includes text, video, sculpture and interactive works from over 100 artists around the world, each proposing some instruction for “new feeling.”
The Felt Book project began with an exhibition at SPACES in Cleveland, OH in January 2015, and toured the United States with shows at Recess (New York), Vox Populi (Philadelphia), Sediment Arts (Richmond), DOUBLE DOUBLE LAND (Toronto), Cave (Detroit), Skylab Gallery (Columbus), The Luminary (St. Louis), Threewalls (Chicago), The White Page (Minneapolis), Leisure Gallery (Denver), False Front (Portland), StoreFrontLab (San Francisco). It was also featured on hour-long Radio broadcasts on KChung Radio (LA) and Clocktower (NY). For over a year Felt Book projects have been distributed weekly via an email subscription called eFELT.
The Institute for New Feeling is a 3-person artist collective committed to the development of new ways of feeling, and ways of feeling new. We create artwork in the form of treatments, therapies, retreats, research studies, audio meditations and wellness products.

This work questions the epistemological qualities of AI-accelerated historiography, akin to 'reverse archaeology'.
