This was a performance for the exhibition: Interference which took place between the Glasgow School of Art and CalArts. I really wanted to break up the too cool for school thing I think, so I might of leaned a little too hard into the whimsey (an easy mistake) I rmeber being really ill when the performance happend, and everything feeling really quite intense as a result. It bit me with another bug - pouring my whole soul into being someone else and feeling how people reponded to me was formative for the direction of my work henceforth. The premise in this piece was to make the audience feel that mysterious things might begin to happen in the workld around them, and that the city could all just crumble away to reveal an ancient and unforgiving land beneath. I was a construction worker starting this process by building brigaddon and I think people bought it, at least I got lot’s of questions after the next chunk of performance.
