Also forgot to mention to run alongside our development as artists on Escalator one have artists has decided to parrell this with his bodys development as visual symbol of our progress.
Jamie Moakes will be working from Charles Bronsons solitary fitness book. He shows this because it can be done in small spaces (cells) so will look good on camera. Plus it can show progression easy since its mainly ever increase amount of diferent push ups.
You can follow the films on our youtube site. He will post a video a day

First of for those that do not know HE SAID Talent agency is a fictional but functional company based in Colchester, Essex. We have been working on piece as a group/collective with each informing the other in some way.
Currently we are on a journey to try to discover if we matter within the economy. We are doing this buy buying as many as one figure as we can in order to make it rare and therefore worth more.
While on development with escalator we are evolving this piece in general as well investigate brands within the company and other works. Which if you follow this blog you will discover what they are.
At this juncture DISCALIMER: there it not one of us within the group that are not dyslexic this may result in confusing language and lack flow please keep with us we are making a point of not getting it checked, to show how much of barrier it is since almost all your career is based on language, applications form, artist statements and so on. Although to us this seems odd are we not visual people after all do we need it to be forms???
So on with talking about escalator we are about a month in and its going well. Currently working towards our showing at Pulse fringe festival in Ipswich 8-10th June if you want to come. Met with my mentor Christopher Dobrowolski who seemed to get my ramblings and see through to see some things that you just can’t while working on it. Being to close and all so feel its moved on a lot got display cases, a counter and white gloves.
Working on the script for my talk but more and more am feeling that the question, How long till this journey is interesting? Keeps coming up as well as how long is long enough on journey like this. Will we ever stop buying ram men.
