day one - July Potsdam 07

cleaning up day (video material, notes,blog creation, selecting whats relevant and gathering info)

decisions we made:
rather than on the waiting room, we will use these two weeks here in Potsdam to focus on the performance room. the way the audience enters and the interaction inside. this we decided because of the time limits and the technical limits we have here. and because it is the core of the idea so it shoudl be the situation from which we build. why and how are they entering, and how are they inside, and how are we inside, with them and with each other.

we have a lot of material already, going back to the footage even more so. it can serve the format, especially the material coming from the states and status play is intimate, vulnerable, voyeristic. it is relevant. that seems reason enough to keep it in the piece for now.

things to do as a result:
find tasks, frames, context for this material from the research we do and the references we have talked about.
experiment with scores, rules for the audience and for ourselves to set up these scenes, the before during after.
