Sentinel work. Apex. or Stand. 

Trying my hand at durational work and live installation that is more linked to performance.

I stood in this position/ place for two hours. 

Occasionally dropping out of sight when someone passed under the blue metal bar which obscured their vision I would drop out of sight, to some bewilderment and even one quite pleasing shriek.

Script for Declan

Your thesis is great

Your thesis is well researched

Your thesis is fine

Everything is going to be fine

Your thesis is original and unique

You have a distinctive writing style

You don’t know how great you are

Your friends really like you

People you don’t know really like you

If you don’t think your thesis is very good, don’t worry you will probably pass and then it will be fine.

Your thesis is almost finished.

You have a lovely turn of phrase

NON-joint course people, remember, 20 percent

Your points are well argued and persuasive

Thesis is not THAT important

I remember reading what plato said in 1412, “Theses whose going to read them anyways?”

You should be proud of what you have achieved

Keep going!

Sure everyone knows the thesis is for saps

Hang in there kitty! /Kid

Think of all the stuff you know about now that you didn’t before

As Shakespeare wrote in Othello: theses don’t matter that much, just get it done and pass.

You are indestructible

  As the notable contemporary poet T-shirt says: If you know me you don’t know me to stop.”

You deserve to have this confidence about yourself.

So here is an inspirational word from T-shirt:

  OR

  SO here is an inspirational word from Kanye

You are a Champion

This is the piece that you heard when you picked up the Thesis Support Hotline Phone. There were many other recording that I did of myself reading the work, and other students. I think we can all agree Declan did it best. And it meant more coming from him.

Would you like to ride my bike.

I had many initial sketches drawn out for this. see notebook. In the end I just wanted people to ride my bike. And they did. 

Mostly inspired by a CD I was given In which Allen Kaprow talks about how to create a happening, and by my research into him and his work in general. His concentration on experiences, social interactions, activites and un-art is something that resonates with me right now.
