Aim of the year: produce vast amounts of salty comm drops. Watch y'winkle pickers, art historians.
As part of a two week residency at ENJOY, Leeds, I produced a series of interconnected/notatallconnected stories with the other artists. This is the result. Well, this is half of the result, the other half is primarily a hypothetical conversation about where on your body would be best to have an extra phallus.

After we'd done I got Adam Cluley to run around with a camera and get some pictures using the lights from the arial performer (I'm not even going to get into that, like Granville said, it was awkward).
I really like these shots, they add an entirely unnecessary air of gloom to the product of the performance. It's nice to get that finished representation of the performance too. Zoë's idea for next time, if we expand on it, is one I'm really interested in, maybe leaving it up each time the performance happens and going over it with the next layer of string, slightly amended, and creating a better picture each time, that'd definitely be something worth playing with.
Well here's a few photos. Last night's gig/exhibition at Trinity.
There's some good shots of people's work here from Adam/Natalie. I'm really happy with the image of Zoë up in the pulpit too. Kind of wish I'd got the odd shot, but ah well, there's enough films, and yeah, as I said in the last post, it was good fun all round.

Tonight was bloody good in the end. There was a slight hiccup at about 6pm when we realised we didn't have the cable, but thanks to @adnbr our problem was solved and we got on with it. We performed the piece twice during the night and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The exhibition as a whole was really fun too, I'm glad I was in the country for this one, rather than submitting stuff by proxy like the last Trinity show.
The fact it was live created a great atmosphere around the piece that wasn't really there last time (photos of Act vs Object to come, I got them off Chris today) and there was interest from the guy from WYP, which is a definite plus. Hopefully something'll come of that, so I'll definitely be chasing that one up.
