raining again; cleaning & cleansing
I have made contact with someone who lives in Florence and has a deep passion for places. We have started to talk about the practical aspects of sharing ideas which is a great start. I finally got round to putting some of my thoughts onto an e-mail at some unearthly hour this morning whilst no doubt most sensible people were tucked up in bed. It feels good though; firstly to realise you have ideas and also to find time to articulate them.
I am hoping that another friend will also join us, if time will allow.
There's another interesting document on the public art online website about collaboration by David Patten. It makes a good point that some people just don't make good collaborators, but I think the process of trying teaches you more about you, and how you prefer to operate. It pushes the boundaries where we begin to feel uncomfortable; and that can only be a good thing.
