I proposed this project with very little thought about the reality of how I was going to achieve the outcomes I had set myself. Now I am in the middle of the preparation and it has grown into an enormous, mountainous challenge. I hope that writing this blog will help me keep it all in proportion!
I’ve been very lucky so far in finding people who are interested in the project. Firstly I met a local artist who gave me a some contacts, one of whom, Dave, has taken on the task of finding participants for me. I also spent a day in Saltaire last week putting up posters and someone phoned me over the weekend saying she was interested. I’m visiting her with Dave on Friday.
My big concern is how the potential participants will cope with the technology that I want to work with. I don’t know whether 80 and 90 year olds will be able to manage it. I guess I’ll find out on Friday!
