What I think, What do you think?


I made it back home after tonight's work in progress presentation of The Middle Bit at the Arnolfini, but only just, my legs had pretty much stopped working.

Tonight I learnt an important lesson about pre-performance nutrition having basically run out of energy and gone all jelly legged before the show and thereafter visibly wilting during the post show discussion. Not even managing to get a beer down me before wobbling off.

My overall feeling is that I just didn't manage to articulate myself very well, that the central point of the show was missing or obscured, in part because I forgot a few bits but there is a wider sense that I am pacing around the issue instead of jumping in and getting to grips with it.

If you were there and would like to say anything or ask a question you can add a comment to this page or send me an email depending on preference.

Thanks to Holly, Helen, Sarah, lovely Arnolfini people, Alex, Prototype, Pilot, Mayfest and everyone who's turned up, watched the show and said stuff.

  • @andytfield is this what you mean? For me context is the world around and outside the work: its time & place.
  • @andytfield Yes critics should be looking at the work's meaning & the artist's intent rather than just the machinery which carries it.
  • @Actionherolive elevate those legs and let the blood rush back down.
  • @hannahnicklin anything at all by Grant Morrison which you haven't read yet: The Invisibles, The Filth, Seaguy, Seven Soldiers of Victory
