Production time

Day 5:

Curator's Cut (Gülgün)

Things are getting serious, the pressure is on to produce. Pikadilli is our work space for the rest of the week.



Adi is out doing field research with his camera and translator, Deriya. Vasilis and Olgu have decided to collaborate and so have Dicle and Aliki.




The production managers are hard at work talking to city officials, securing permits, permissions working out the details and logistics.

Aliki and Dicle have made good progress on their ideas, Adi researched the surrounding streets and residents building on the exercise to collect signs. Olgu and Vasilis are having difficulty narrowing down their concept.

This evening we tested some of the projection ideas. The video below shows Aliki and Dicle's test of words and phrases collected from around the city on different types of fabric and in different configurations.





                Other considerations include the movement of the material and its affect on the phrases.
