Post performance

This was out final set up for our performance. I believed we achieved what we set out to do. As performers (thought can we call it that when we are being ourselves?) we stayed true to our objective, of creating an intimate setting with our participants.

If I could change one thing I would like to take more from Marina Abramovic and her use of duration, If I had the capability of doing the piece for as long as it should run, I would enjoy that the participant be the one who decides when my station has run it’s course.

Otherwise I believed we did everything we could, I merely felt that a lot of my conversations in my station were unfinished, which was not our fault, we just did not have the means to do it all day.

I felt while watching parts of the live stream, I would have made the quality better and sound pitch clear, it would have been interesting to watching even the most tiniest of response. I like that we did not record it, every moment for something either to be seen or missed. You never knew while sitting there if your intimate moment was being seen by anyone.

I feel this is not the end of this performance, we are merely at the beginning.
