BACK AFTER A BUSY WEEK


We met up in the house two Saturdays ago to discuss ideas for the main artwork of the We Are Here project. After much discussion we had honed the ideas down to working on a project on Bennachie. In keeping with the Pyschogeographic starting point of the project it was decided to attempt to replicate a derive in which the audience are guided around the site with five site specific works relating to the five senses and with a reference point relating to aspects of the hill and its history. 


Ellice has made provisional contact with the relevant people and we will discuss our ideas with them over the next few weeks.


One of the main concerns in undertaking such a project is obviously timescale. It may well be that the project now moves over into 2012 as the production of five artworks is a huge undertaking and may require further funding being sought over the next few months.


As a backup we looked at the position of where we all live and using the map identified a central point between all the houses. The position is shown in the photo above.
