Ecoute Bien la Campagne
This is our final post about our residency at the beautiful Chateau de Sacy in France, which culminated with an exhibition at the Chateau for the month of September. Back at the beginning of September, we installed the films in the barn […]

Post-modern dwarf!
Our last day. Sad face. Today we had a crack at the edits, looking through all the footage and trying to work out our ins and outs, quite literally. By mid afternoon, we had gotten tired of looking at hours […]

Detour!
There is one piece of footage that we are really struggling to find audio to match. So we left the dead cat out in the front garden for most of the morning to see what we could capture. Hermine spotted […]

Bang Bang!
Hermine had a bit of a mental breakdown in the run up to the presentation this afternoon. The stress of the big occasion was getting to her. We managed to get the place ready for 3.30pm and then sat patiently […]

Nous sommes Henry/Bragg
Firstly apologies for no blog yesterday. We basically spent all day sweeping up the barn (think mammoth spider webs and tonnes of pigeon shit). There has been a woofers revolt. They couldn’t handle Hermine any more and have done a […]

Chicken Shit!
Sorry for the delayed blog post – the internet was down when we got in last night. Either that or Hermine had switched it off as she could “sense a thunderstorm brewing.” We did have a few interesting conversations with […]

Frogger!
Today we returned to Paris to find the cloud-making chimneys we had spotted yesterday. We parked up where we could, but unfortunately there were 5 motorways between us and said chimneys. How could we get to them? We ended up […]

Boulevard Peripherique
In the wake of the news of the horrific attacks in Nice, today was rather a sombre affair. We cut short our plans to film in a metro station and spent the morning in a cafe watching the rolling news […]

This is not for you!
Today has been a day of disappointments and hard drinking. This morning we started on the sauce at 11am for the continued Bastille Day celebrations, quaffing blanc de blanc behind a rather impressive marching band. This was followed by a […]
