Went to see Sleeping Beauty, the pantomime at the New Wolsey – oh no I didn’t – amazing set but maybe not double entendre enough! Brian Eno presented a rich and thoughtful collection of positions and ideas at a talk the other night at Norwich University of the Arts. It was interesting to hear some diametrically opposing thoughts voiced to the audience of educators in the audience who sat listening to him. Ideas around working with chaos, the driving forces of creativity, how to make art, the role of attention, gardening v architecture, and then for me - the lack of process within ai, gotta reflect on that one. Truly wonderful stuff. Friday night was off to Lowestoft to check out Battery of Ideas in the old Tesco on the highstreet. What a fabulous space. Really nice evening full of great conversations with good work - Digital Film Installations: Water Portals by Henry Driver & Arboreal by Emily Richardson going on around you. https://firstlightfestivalcic.com/batteryofideas Snape had a sharing of Bystander - the work of a week’s dance residency with Richard Pye. https://www.instagram.com/richardpye/?hl=en-gb It was one of the most moving pieces I have seen for a long time. It brought me to tears with delicate, studied movements – stunningly powerful. https://www.brittenpearsarts.org/events/richard-pye Onto screens – really enjoying everything about Wolf Hall – The Light – astonishingly taught acting, tight script and fabulous costumes. Juror #2 – will you do the ‘right’ thing? Conclave – you will do the right thing?
