Included roundtable performance/discussion about performance concerns and festival plans.
During discussion internet chat took place. Intermittant pauses in speech and subsequent switching of chairs took place. Discussions of performances to take place, inspired by fragility of time and space.
Performances by Molly Kreppel, Emilio Rojas, Connie Freitas, Tomorrow Rising, Genesis y. m.,
and G Amani.
Molly danced with agression to a children's song that was looped and double time.
Emilio addressed recording and perception of time by wrapping and guiding audiences with cassette tape.
I performed in a video installation that involved the wrapping/unwrapping of an alarm clock/facsimile. I attempted to comment on wasted time, and the intangible nature of memory and time.
Tomorrow Rising painted a gallery wall white for the entire length of the Festival. She covered spatial elements of architecture thereby "covering history".
Genesis sanded a 24 by 42 cm rectangle on a white wall and implemented a shutter light in her performance. She dealt with time relative to sun as light source, and the passage of time.
G read feminist literature while dressed in underwear and a long veil, as audience members threw, dripped, smashed tomatoes on her. She comments on patriarchy and suppression in a variety of forms.
