December 14:
Plan: to build a program. To build the contract with the audience.
Light
What is seen, what isn’t seen.
Journey behind.
We do not need a unifying narrative. Invitation to bring existing pieces. To jam, extrapolate upon. To provide (small material) that generates. Working to place the audience within. The challenge of not knowing.
The Light Watching (Elizabeth’s script/score).
Donʼt act. See the light. Take the light flare. See the other. Take the bit of knowledge and share. Send it out the orifice. Your own inner landscape is OK to pass as thread through a tapestry. Lay down simply … arms on either side, in the same direction. Ends when we are all down. Relaxed.
Tomorrow at 2pm we will engage community into processes. Not show, but play with. How do we get the audience to come in and uncross their arms? Reaching organically and making connections. Create expectations. Working to place the audience within. Challenge of not knowing.
