So the experience for me so far has been one of immense joy and discomfort - not two things i generally feel at the same time, so thanks.
I'm so glad that as a goup we are slowly beginning to form our own rather large peoplette show under the tutelage of these fantastic artists.
Fuck me yesterday was great - the stand up - the connection - all the journeys , all so diverse yet all starting from exactly the same spot - interesting how some people mainly noticed 'suspicious yellow-looking flip-flops', whilst others noticed 'a man with a really really bushy black beard and no hair, and I thought in my head of turning his entire head upside down so he had a beautiful head of hair with a clean-shaven face'. How we all view the world from a different perspective - this is gonna be great for the piece.
Speaking of piece all I can keep thinking is apocolyptic mushroom. Images are emerging in my head that link all our diverse journeys to one port of call, one airport, one train station, the last place on earth - how did we get there? who did we see? why are we here? what have we got to show for our journey? what are our fears, hopes, dreams?... cough spit drool sneeze cough...frantic mushrooming uncontrollable...who knows!!
Right got to go or will be late to see you.

p.s. something that came up on the first day with the whole group music movement leper thing - with so many of us we can create such strong images of waves/walls/armies/towers etc etc - looked amazing with incoming tide of hands - loved it.
