the sound-piece for the installation is finished. also the cd-version.
tomorrow i will copy the cd-edition (60) and (fuck that shit) fold all the cd-covers.
its not just folding a cd-booklet. no. its a special folding-technique, so to say a how-to-fold-a-complete-cd-sleeve-out-of-two-pieces-of-paper-
origami-experience. and because its so nice i can look forward to do it sixty times. got it ? good !
on thursday i will build up the installation on location and print the design on the cd´s and friday is left for all the things here and there which will come unexpected, mostly last minute....
i have a nice and inspiaring email-conversation since a few weeks with one of the artists who had been so kind to collaborate for this project. this is an extract from one of our emails.
i love it how he pointed out the reason why a lot of artists quite often look like being on drugs..
he:
thanks for the update. i know how it is, organizing the whole thing in your thoughts while you hold a hammer in one hand and an embroidery hoop in the other, dealing with the occasional unplanned surprise, the energy of it running you...
me:
ummm.....YESSS
he:
ahh - i thought as much. it's like being under the sea - the deeper you go, and the pressure
building and darkness and large monsters waiting to eat you... then the show comes and people wonder why you're comatose!
me:
hihihi...exactly !!!
he:
this is why people always think that artists are on heroin. and yes, sometimes they also are. but they are ALL on... "production" (and the end result of _that_ on your life is sometimes not so different!)
(unless of course it is nothing at all like this for you and i'm just making it all up!)
me:
ummm..no, man, you pointed it out quite good.....
the cpf book arrived today and i am sooooo fuckin enthusiastic !!!!
i will post some pics as soon as possible !
get intoxicated !
cheers,
iris
