Today Dominic, Emma, Niamh and maggie worked the space together and also had some really good discussions on the process and how it is effecting us and our work.
Emma worked on creating a prayer tree with the yellow muslin and it is developing and growing as the day goes on.  Will be worth noting if [...]

It was a productive and a destructive weekend… kicking the recorder over in the black is still a source of discomfort.
I’m used to leaving a more permanent trace of work… so why then the next day was I in the street with chalk dust,
maybe I learnt something about letting go…. I’m still learning.
It was as [...]

Well the peace and calm has been pushed aside again and new impressions are being left!
Jonathan and maggie did a 3 hr loose session which became  a here and now of sorts working on sounds. Some really intriguing stuff happened and although we recorded it,  the devise got knocked over and the file became [...]

Am enjoying responding to the memories left on the luggage taps, in the envelops.  Explored moving very slowly inside the installation on the chair in response to “So old and so new, second hand, first trinity ball tonight, like anything was possible”.  So i moved like anything was possible and allowed the string to guide [...]

Niamh got busy in [...]

you have my memory in action with all that talk…. it’s all dusty but it’s still there, surprisingly enough.
hmm memories in the attic… the top of the space needs more infiltrating now, glad to see it’s started.
(don’t mind me, I’m doing a bit of remote thinking, I though seeing as i can’t be there I’d [...]

Dominic arrived into the space today before me as i am putting together an arts council application!  If i wanted to know what it was like to have to jump into and out of the process then it was today as i had to receive calls and check emails every so often, so i did [...]

Today was the start of our community engagement and wow did Emma and Niamh play a blinder From the toddlers of  Tinahley making hand puppets to the teenagers and on to the ‘recycled teenagers’ AKA the active retirement group they really got people thinking about how they want to engage with this process.  [...]
