Meeting number 2

I know this should really have been done quite a while ago...but I forgot!

We decided we needed a context to our work and thought along the lines of wars/revolutions, as the Dada's work was based around war.

Current revolutions : Libya
Egypt
Yemen
Bahrain
Iraq/Iran
Afgan
People associated with these issues: George Bush/Obama
Tony Blair
Gaddafi
Hosni Mubarak

The revolutions made us think about how government decisions affect the people of that country and the decisions our government makes and how they affect us. We then decided we would create our work around our feelings of the decisions the co-alition have made, for example Budget cuts. The work would be Anarchistic in it's approach, and we may end up filming/photographing this anarchism.

We decided to do some try outs on a smaller scale (our work will be 'quite big') so we could try different ways or layering/ripping/sticking etc. We would also like to incorporate text into the work, and not just images.

We were advised that we could do our presentation as a performance and are working towards this.

Alice is also reading the society of the sceptical by Guy Debord to see if it can help/influence our work (thank you Alice!)
