Its Wednesday but just getting round to this - a weekend of
films – both with a focus in the middle east – Argo a Hollywood romp that sets you on a thrilling ride with final
scenes that take your breathing away.
Ben Affleck does a wonderful directing job and acts a beard well, don’t
leave the cinema as the credits add another layer. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1024648/
Incendies blows up in your face –
less easy to find but worthwhile as it has provided a restless night and the
inability to sleep past 6.00 (hence writing this). A staggering journey of what
it is to encounter the past, the film beautifully, brutally unfolds leaving a
kind of open scar as it undoes itself. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1255953/
Looking forward to a week of work in Norwich both at nuca and then at the Costume and Textile study centre and also a day at MEAL.
Starting the third stage of
the rethink around the structure of year 3 on the textile course at nuca. Stage
one was an open phase of finding your practice, then after a presentation there
was a period of focused study – today I introduce the first of two group
collaborative projects – its only a week but working together will be an
interesting test and good practice for the future. http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/005-briefing-for-unit-8
have started the countdown to the moment they leave in seconds - it makes it
seem longer.
Next week - gets a little hardcore in terms of time left.
Time to get on - http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/briefing-10th-dec
Continuing to work in stitch and the pleat – slightly
obsessed – I don’t think that it will pass.
