A Fork in the Road.
Now that funding for this…….whatever it is……..artist residency position….. project based learning opportunity…..community engagement programme or is it just something I wanted to do, has got sponsors, stakeholders and other peoples agendas and money interwoven, I am standing at a fork in the road…..deciding to turn left or right.
Left or right?
Right is the path I have to take.
Along this path lies workshops with people who dont know I am coming their way yet. Along this this path lies public seating, a path which is specific for wheelchair users to experince the woods, with interative features (art) along it. These features will stimulate the senses and target not just wheelchair users, but everyone with a disability or not. Running along this path has to be a blog documenting how these goals/targets and outputs are achieved. A valuable piece of evidence based documentation with feed back built in.
I dont think that blog will be on this site, as what is documented here is not altogether relevant. The new blog (for which I will be paid some relatively modest sum) will be linked to the men who count butterflies website.
Left is the path where the creation myths lay, waiting to be discovered. The Blean men are down there, as well as a woollen calender! Other unknown things are down that pathway. There is no light at the end of that path, no sunny clearings in view. I know ‘pylons’ are down that path somewhere? Giants carrying power. I want to find some stories about these giants down that path.
But I have to turn right.
