or whatever form is chosen… why?
I love the idea of the conversational form stemming from our ongoing interview/s and dialogs; but in THIS context I wonder how engaging that will be as an outdoor projection on a wall?
Maybe we could produce a booklet or let the interview unfold online while the projections could be a bit more sudden, spatial, tripped-out, and engaging? Something that really lights up the space or our collective mood?
At a fundamental level, what are we hoping to do in or to the world by this action?
Is the idea to blend-in? To explode? To create something that looks like what we expect to see as “new media art”… to make people nervous? Be brutally weird”?
Are we responding to the physical space or ignoring it? Or something in between?
Do we use English? What about something that avoids words? Or invents a new language?
comments…
I think we should do something quite unexpected, and different from what we will do in the future.
In a way, I think we should talk about establishing a way of working in general, figure that out, and then break our own mold with this one-off opening experiment.
In terms of form, content and process, I would prefer to do something that is high impact, but also simple and direct.
Something that either makes ‘sense’ at the site of the festival and prompts people to think or feel something new, or alternatively, something mystical, confusing, color-saturated, and hypnotizing.
