Folks,
thanks to seth and chris the classroom blog is in full swing
6 classes are participating this semester in the blog which follows the proposed next step of the creative capital application
i am truly excited and hopoeful
but we need more involvement i think
please check out evidence
also, how's everything finishing up
the carolina posse arrives in just 9 days
i'm on pins and needles
in the pins and needles dept -
I thought it would be fair to let y'all know that, as happens often with me, I keep changing my mind about what I'm bringing up there. I've been thinking a lot about how I relate to the content of this show, and feeling like the sound stuff in the ceiling actually would be a bit of a cop-out - fun, but not really about anything that Matters to me in our discussions here.
So, I'm looking around. not sure yet which of a few difft things will be the thing. Not like I've ever posted pictures of progress here anyway as have some of you, but I just thought I should keep you posted to be fair.
Oh, and I've caught the blog bug too -- using one for my video class this semester. Fun!

i love the suspense
you have talked about quite a few possible options for the show
one initial idea used phones and "dead air"
what happened with that project
i think sound is a key element to this show
especially with the large open space in that gallery
once even we talked about birds
im back to sound today, I think to stay, but I'm afraid it's not birds...something more about alarm, and the scary parts of our references...
Posted by: Kevin at August 30, 2004 11:45 PMkevin. i feel as if we are talking as two left in a dusty ghost-town, as we have all moved on to different, more active blogs. ordinary aura has been abandoned, and here we are like dudes with metal detectors on an empty beach.
it is a weird feeling.
in fact, i call out and listen for an echo.
somehow there is a quiet noise, wind.
yeah, I have put my ear to this one a lot less often over the last few weeks, knowing that the lines had gone quiet.
I've wondered about why, and wonder if we'll talk about this next week...

I guess as everyone got a bit panicked with pre-show working and jitters we all got off-line. I am so intrigued with thinking about sound in that space. What are some of your thoughts specifically, Kevin?
Sorry, to create a Ghost Town. Maybe that should be part of the show if we are talking about the presence or absence of things.
Is this the eye of the hurricane?
