- Drawing skills, tracing and attention – towards drawing without handsPublication . Santos, João DosIs there a drawing skill integrating a common ground for the perception of the things in the world? This is one possible question regarding an approach to the function of drawing today. There is no straight answer to this question because there is no univocal definition of drawing. Nonetheless, it is possible to delineate one important skill that is developed through the practice of drawing: attentive look. Attention, as addressed in these lines, is an educated perceptual skill that permeates the ability to see and to draw2. I will argue for the value of traced drawings.I am assuming that the acquired knowledge and understanding of the visual field, integrating different parts in relation to each other and to the mind of the drawer, is this common ground; and that drawing as the mediation of this visual perception is the required skill. I will also suggest that attentive drawing can be measured and made visible using digital technologies, namely EEG interfaces, as an artistic undertaking.
- Desenho de decalque - translação, interpretação e heurísticaPublication . Santos, João DosDrawing by tracing is composed of the duration of the drawer’s action of tracing on a tracing paper (almost transparent or translucent), positioned over the image (of the object) to be traced. In this text, I attempt to reflect upon the available means for the elaboration of drawing strategies leading to the making of a tracing drawing. These strategies are based on the drawer’s choices, which in turn depend on their abilities as drawer and observer. I propose the tracing drawing as a type of translation and interpretation, which, through heuristics, is revealed as ancillary to other drawings. I also propose the attentional tracing drawing as a contribution to the development of learning drawing strategies,, by contributing to the awareness of the act of drawing by the drawer.

- Translations 2.2013Publication . dos Santos, JoãoTranslations 2.2013 is a digital device for the presentation of drawings, based on the interpretation and translation of others' drawings data. On this work it is proposed the experience of the perception of the duration of the act of drawing, as well as of other representations for its data, as a way to place the observer on the position of interpreter and creator of a mental copy of the drawing. The drawings being displayed have been previously produced using another device's module, constituted by a digital drawing machine and a person to make the drawing, that will record, on a text file, the data corresponding to every pixel's position and its quantity. Translations 2.2013 is a device that interprets and transforms these data in a copy drawing of its original and in graphs of the relation of each pixel's position and the duration of the drawing process. This drawing presentation has the duration of one day, happening pixel-by-pixel, in order to accentuate the act of drawing as a performative act inscribed in a duration. By turning the revelation of the drawing in an extremely slow process it becomes relevant the observer's perception as a subjective and creative action.
