Umbrellas, Images and moving to the Firehall


We've been working for two weeks at the Japanese United Church. Music is fantastic, dance is ...well...getting there! We are trying not to kill each other with the large white umbrellas. I had originally planned for 5 dancers in the space...What was I thinking!?! Three plus those props is more than enough. Should get even more interesting with the weight of the projectors.

We have HUNDREDS of pictures. SO many great ones. The puzzle is now how to put the pieces together properly. Here's one shot by Steven Mayes of the sky behind the Firehall Arts Centre. The colour is some oddity of the digital camera, but gorgeous.

Still waiting for some technology to arrive by post (hate the back-to-work legislation, but hoping it will mean the stuff will arrive soon). The piece is truly still in the rough but as Matt says "It's a thing" - and it is. And a pretty interesting thing too...
