A 'doodle' is defined as an unfocused, aimless scribble or drawing, whilst a persons attention is distracted. Gerners' 2003 book entitled Branchages is a perfect example of mindless drawing, the book was entirely produced whilst Gerner was on the phone.
It has become a sort of personal journal. It witnesses my conversations, my readings and my personal reality.

Branchages gives an insight into his thoughts, feelings and conversations through clues in his work, it is through Gerners subconscious that these are portrayed to each page. When looking at pages from Branchages, your eyes don't know where to look, there are so many tiny little moments Gerner has unknowingly shared with us.
