Some notes from school, fall term

October 2017

Performance and social practice
What are these:
socially engaged performance
devised theatre
participatory performance
interactive performance

What is the difference between community art and social practice?

How do you introduce a project to different people, and across time?

What kind of capital do artists gain from their projects?

How do you subvert "successful documentation"? 
- shaky video footage
- extremely edited instagram photos that look like abstract images

Making scripts/scores as the basis for projects

Using the frame of art to experience/look at something difficult differently
Anxiety as a resource

How are you today?
Good. How are you?
Good.

Is my work honest and sincere? 
- Spencer Byrne-Seres

A project is a great chance to wrestle with your ethics
- Patricia Vazquez

Toilet

"Revolution

begins....

where you are sitting"

While on the toilet seat in a friend's friend's vinyl-record-filled house where I was crashing in Albuquerque on a hot springs pilgrimage in my recent youth, these words were on the back of the door. At that moment I felt a sense of awakening, not unlike looking at clouds float slowly across the sky on a beautiful summer's day, and spotting shapes in them.
