Back from a trip to the Baltic in Newcastle and thought I ought to report back. As is so often the case, as soon as I come up with something that I think is interesting, it turns out to have already been done. I've not even got round to filming yet.
Harrell Fletcher and Miranda July's Learning To Love You More is represented at the gallery. It currently comprises seventy 'assignments' including "Record the sound that is keeping you awake" and "Grow a garden in an unexpected spot". The dedicated website is well worth a look, truly fascinating stuff. Just bloody typical that it's so close to what I want to do.
It provides food for thought, though. I originally planned to conduct all the experiments myself. I hadn't considered having other people participate - although the videos were planned as lectures to encourage people to think about the issues at hand. A variety of people would certainly be more interesting to watch, plus it takes the limelight off me.
