As I mentioned this blog forms part of my current R&D project and is being used as a way to reflect on the project, share the project with others and log the project for future presentation and evaluation. Blogs are great for this and although I do not use a blog always, I have in the past used blogs alongside specific projects. An example is the use of a blog during a 23 days durational performance made with Ben for the Edinburgh Fringe in 2006. It became a great way for us to share the experience of the work with others, especially those not able to travel to see the work in edinburgh. It also acted as a shared space that Ben and I could both write on, but remain one document. The blog from Edinburgh is still being used by us now, not to write on but as material to feed back into live works, most recently the EEC performance. So loads of great reasons to use blogs both as tools but also as works in themselves.
