## KNOTS AS OBJECTS TO THINK WITH
-There is a delicate complexity of thinking of and with knots, which ignites layers of simultaneous
-connections to one’s specific experience; where one person may associate the knots with struggles
-they face, another may think of connecting or thriving times. In a workshop in Rotterdam, I
-asked participants to write three words that comes to mind when they think of knots. There were
-some words in common like strong, chaotic, confusing and anxious. On the other hand, there
-were variations of connection, binding, bridge and support. Keeping these answers in mind or by
-coming up with your words on knots and embodying them in the practice of reading would make
-a diff erence in how you understand the same text.
-
-Seeing how these words, interpretations of a physical object were so diff erent to each other was
-transcendental. In this thesis, I am excited to share my understanding of knots with you. My three
-words for knots are resistance, imagination and infinity. Keeping these in mind, I experimented

+Seeing how these words, interpretations of a physical object were so different to each other was transcendental. In this thesis, I am excited to share my understanding of knots with you. My three words for knots are resistance, imagination and infinity. Keeping these in mind, I experimented
with certain reading modes as you will see later on.
-Knots are known to be used 15 to 17 thousand years ago for multiple purposes. These purposes
-were often opposing each other. For example, it could be used to let something loose or to restrain
-it; for pleasure or pain; for going high above or down below… I believe this diversity of uses can
-also be seen in how people approach knots as an idea or a metaphor. One can think it represents
-chaos where someone else might see it as a helpful mark. Essentially, this diversity is what got
-me interested in knots years ago and since then, I have found ways to implement this “loop of
-thought” in my daily life and research methods.
-
-There are two main reasons to why I chose to write this essay in a “knotted” format. One is that I
-would like to share my process and progress of research on this project and this involves “thinking
-with an object”, in this case types of knots. In Evocative Objects, Sherry Turkle, who is a sociologist
-and the founder of MIT initiative of technology and self, refers to the object in the exercise
-of thinking as emotional and intellectual companions that anchor memory, sustain relationships
-and provoke new ideas. I completely agree with this statement through personal experience. The
-second reason is that I see this as an opportunity to experiment if I can use knots as an interactive
-(which is not in knots’ nature since they are mainly practiced in solo) and playful element in
-writing. This is also why I would like to take a moment to mention what happens to the interplay
-of processes in which we call thought when we think with knots in specific.
-
-For Turkle and Seymour Papert, who is a mathematician, computer scientist and educator that
-did remarkable research on constructivism, being able to make a reading experience tangible, or
-even physically representable makes the process of thought more concrete. Concrete thinking in
-this sense is a way of thinking that I adapted to in the past years, where you think with the object
-and imagine it vividly during the process and address meanings to it as you read or write along.
-This way it’s easier to compartmentalize or attribute certain parts of a text to an imagined or real
-physical item which makes the mind at ease with complex chains of thought.
-
-Imagine you are reading a story… What if you think of the string itself as the journey and the
-slip knot (which is a type of stopper knot) as a representation of an antagonist because of its specific use in hunting, would this change your approach to reading this story? I believe so…
-
-What if instead of a slip knot a Bowline was on the string, would that represent something else in
-the story because of its usage in practice. A Bowline is commonly used to form a fixed loop at the
-end of a string; it’s strong but easy to tie, untie. Due to these qualities, we can imagine the bowline
-to represent the conclusion in a story. What if we have a Square Knot, how would that change the
-course of a narrative? Square knot is used to bundle objects and make the two ends of the same
-string connect. From just this, we can use it to represent the connection between the beginning
-and end of a story. My point is, there are limitless implementations on how to use knots in literature
-because of their versatile purposes and the narrative vocabulary they create. Topologists are
-still trying to identify seemingly infinite numbers of combinations which we simply call “knots”
-and I see this as an inspiration to keep writing.
-
-One example of the wondrous versatility and potential of knots is how they are used to archive
-and encrypt information. Incan people from the Andes region recorded information on Quipus,
-dating back to 700 CE. Quipus are textile devices consisting of several rows of cotton and/or
-camelid string that would be knotted in a specific way to record, store and transmit information
-ranging from accounting and census data to communicate complex mathematical and narrative
-information (Medrano, Urton, 2018). Another example is the Yakima Time Ball, which was used
-by North-American Yakama people to show life events and family aff airs.
-
-This is why I humbly decided to document my research process with a Quipu of my own. I am
-trying to symbolize the twists, decisions and practices throughout this year with knots of my
-choosing. I was inspired by Nayeli Vega’s question, “What can a knot become and what can become
-a knot?”

## WEAVING INTO THE TEXT
-This thesis expects participation from its reader. You have the option to have a mode of reading,
-where you will be guided by strings to start reading from a certain section according to the type of
-reader you are and read the loops one by one until the end, weaving through the text. To determine
-the string or mode of reading, there are some simple questions to answer.
-
-The three modes of reading are combine, slide, build . After you discover the starting point
-with the yes or no map in the upcoming pages, you will continue the reading journey through the
-strings of diff erent colors that will get you through the text. This way, the linear text will become
-in a way, non-linear by your personal experience.
-
-Bear in mind that you can choose to read this thesis from beginning to end as a single string too if
-you wish so.
-
-Combine mode of reading is for readers who are more interested in the journey and the connections
-between process and result. Slide mode of reading is for more laid back readers who
-aren’t looking to connect ideas but are more focused on the motivation and purpose of the
-project. Build readers are detail oriented and academic readers who would prefer a “traditional”
-lead to reading.
-
-Alongside the different strings to follow the text, there will be little drawings in the margins as seen above, which will have diff erent representations like in a Quipu. Certain knots represent the experiences that raise interesting opportunities for research and distinct events I went through while making the project and underneath the drawing you can find the relation to the knot itself explained.
-For example if I couldn’t manage to do something I planned to do, this will be represented with a
-broken knot. Bend knots which are used to connect two strings, will be representing the relation between theories and my ownexperiences/motivations. Hitches which are knots that are formed around a
-solid object, such as a spar, post, or ring will be representing the evidence or data I have collected on the subject. We move on now with the working end and make some loops!
-## HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR STRING
-This map will reveal your mode of reading. The order of reading will be indicated with a loop sign
-Please hold a string in your hand as you read the text and make knots or loops as you weave through the
-reading as an exercise for concrete thinking. See you at the standing end!
-and a number on top of the sign with a color. This is the numeric order you can follow to read the thesis.
