We continue to meet in a very layered way, and did a 'show and share' of Spine, Limbs, and Optic Nerve today. I am purposely trying to introduce performance into the process, since the different sections will not interact with one another in performance. I want the performers to be able to conceive of the whole by placing themselves outside for parts other than the ones that they are in. I am appreciating the density of what we are creating, and anticipate editing and clarifying as we evolve, but still with the same weight of material that we now have.
We played a bit with the video images for Spine with Eryn, which is going to be more interesting and pertinent to the whole piece than I initially thought.
It is interesting to have Ernest there photographing- a luxury in some ways, and it keeps things on edge a bit in other ways. I promise to post some shots of his process.
Now that we have our overall structure, titles, time frames, we just need to get the music and the journeys mapped out a bit more.
