I’m feeling a bit like a boat that’s been cut loose from the dock and just let float around at the moment. I keep reviewing my list of ideas to explore, bits of film I want to make etc and not actually getting to grips with things. I’m off to N.Ireland after tomorrow to see four galleries so perhaps my thoughts will crystalise a bit more. The show in Geneva has not been nailed down to a venue yet, I have a few galleries supposedly watching me, one supporting and helping me get some critical writing done, and many projects I could set up myself, but no actual concrete deadlines.
There are so many opportunities listed now I never have time to get past reading the third page or so on websites so I am probably missing all the best ones. Sometimes I feel the amount of info available is just as much a curse as a benefit. I guess I need to have a structured approach otherwise I could just flail around and drown in it. If some smart person out there could offer a service which would sift out opportunites/ articles etc appropriate to my practice and email me no more than say four at a time a day I could cope with that. Otherwise I just run around like the headless chicken of the web, lost in a sea of inappropriate opportunities, giving up and wandering off to make dinner.
PS Artsmatrix has been scooped up and rescued at the last minute so will live to see another day – yeh!
