An update

Hi friends, after all the videos of our process we've been posting here's a quick update on Box Shy, our first piece in The PARTY PROJECT.

We started this piece layering ideas on one another's through media we could put online. To remind folks, I started the round, sending to Shana without commentary a video that explores themes that I often return to when I don't know where to start with a piece -playing with being seen, being still, playing with taking charge of a limited space.

Shana ran with the idea of "graphic" representation that we're using in our process for These Walls Sing - transforming my movement in the video frame into lines --frozen and alive at the same time.

David worked from Shana's animation (without the video) to create a score that he can perform live, making additional composition choices in the moment.

So with the "piece" at this stage we came together to discuss how to turn this into a performance off the internet, since the idea is to bring you into it at the next party you invite us to!

The conversation kinda started all over the place and suggestions and solution and new problems were tossed about until we had scrolls of paper and a studio date. The clip in the previous post is from our rehearsal where we put it all together. What you don't see here are the audience (you) giving shape to our performance space and unrolling 50' of Shana's drawings as David and I also play with time and moment.

Thanks for watching!
