Hello 2010. It’s already February, holy crap. To welcome in the newish year, some video from our workshops. I’ve been experimenting (as you’ll know if you’ve been following along) with cartography extensively. Paintings blend with high res maps scans from old Welsh tour guides (read most bizarre and invigorating extracts below). Also been playing with dust/dusk – see below. And finally, Bessie Bighead (even though she was looking all the time) – beloved amongst her beloved cows.
A wonderful day of hardcore audio, Zoe and I channeling the delights of bullying children for Gwennie’s song and arguably the most superior narration in the work. Found old footage of mid-20th century Welsh children playing: girl with girls, boys with boys. Hop, skip and jump, rolling wheels down cobbled streets, manic dancing in circles, swinging off ropes in the town park. Will post audio soon.
Breaking through to our third or fourth weeks of workshops. We have, in some form or other, tackled the primary characters that have always drawn us in, which is more or less an unrelenting challenge in a text with 60-odd characters. Trading skills and lessons, we’ve been rolling around with the cat for days in the doona-slash-ocean of the town’s dreams.
Some of the images rolling along with us are shown below, all of them stolen from the magical suitcase Zoe delivered to my bedroom.
