I’ve been thinking a lot about BED, the live work I’m making for the Day of Intimacy event. And the more I think about it the more I think I want to write an accompanying essay or hand book!
What’s this desire to write about then? I can’t guarantee that it’s not an attempt to pre-empt criticism that the piece is juvenille. I can’t guarantee that it’s not an attempt to demonstrate how much I think about what appears to be simple work.
But outside of academia (which I am) does this kind of writing have a place? Who, and where, are my imagined readers?
I’m getting a bit anxous about how long the task I’ve set myself will take. Previous task vased durational work has taken considerably longer that I imagined it would. There’s something quite poetic about finishing it late in the evening – at bedtime.
