We gave our talk at Aid and Abet on Saturday. It was interesting to present the very beginnings of our respective research interests. We presented our talk in a small room, a constructed space within the wider space which is Aid and Abet. Given our recent trip to The Radar Museum it put me in mind of some kind of RAF briefing room which I imagine I saw when I was a child, when I would, on the odd occassion, go with dad to the control tower.
We were lucky enough to have Ailie Rutherford who was there to carry out her Ganzfeld Experiment after our talk. She is an artist who is based at The Royal Standard and although not native to Liverpool, knows it well. Whilst talking about an image I had of the Clarion Clubhouse in Liverpool, The Arc, I was able to ask her about the area and what is happening there now. She also have a working interest in cycling clubs so we plan to catch up when we go to Liverpool.
So we need to plan our trip to Liverpool and complete the rest of the UFO data / research – its been a busy project and we need to take some time to contemplate and deliberate. The three strands: Satellite Portfolio, UFO Research and the Liverpool Inexpert Talk has kept us busy, but its been a learning curve as all of these types of projects are. We want to capitalise on this new methodology of making and collaborating by consider how we could extend the invitation to other artists who could make use of our skills as research assistants and collaborators.
In addtion to our artist talk Saturday also featured Norwich away to Liverpool with a very reasonable result of 1 -1.
