1st Rehearsal


The group has met for a first rehearsal.

 We spend some time discussing the actual assignment outline. Some people, involving me feel slightly lost in the task. The group is also concerned with the artistic form and how much of the archival material should be involved in the final piece. We spend some time on the internet in one of the UEL class room researching the Lift archives. We read an article describing the first Dream Capsule staged in a Myer window shop. The group decided to investigate if there was any video material prom that period. We have found few videos on You Tube that show the participants of the Urban Dream Capsule performing a dance routine. We found it amusing and decided to recreate the dance as a documentation of the event. I also found this footage of one of the participants cooking, the other two siting down on hairs and interacting with the audience on the other side of the glass. One of the men is holding a piece of what looks like a small drawing board and a pen, which suggests that it’s the way the individuals communicate with the audience. The fourth participant can be seen in the bathroom and appearing to be trying to fix what looks like a radiator to me.
