So, we decided today to think up 9 questions to ask each other about work…in the past, the present and the future. We then took it in turns to answer a question, filming the response….here are the questions. The answers may or may not follow at some later date. Two of the answers…with added machine…

Read MoreDay 5 – old graphics
After a very interesting and inspiring conversation with Sarah Leigh, Senior producer down here at Wales Millenium Centre, about possible future options for development and presentation of the outcomes of this initial period of R&D, which the WMC have generously supported through use of space and facilities, we are excited about starting the second week…

Excavating the Past in a DIG(ital) world

A body based articulation of misremembered moments and deranged dance steps. A catastrophic catalogue of invention turned disappearance act. A wayward waltz of aspirational immortality.
