Went to see Dave Overton at Thomas Parker House last week about loaning technical equipment. Spoke to a woman called Jackie Fisher, about my performance. She, herself used to be a performance artist and so she gave me some good advice. She said it would not be possible to record six hours of footage continuously, and that when you search for Marina Abromovic's performance's you dont see a lot of video recorded footage. Therefore, the best option is to get a friend to come at any point of the performance and video record just a small part, around 2-3 minutes. Still images are more important than video recordings, therefore, i would need assistance in someone to come and take a number of photograph's of the performance. I have asked Dave if he is free to do the photography, he said to remind him nearer the time, if he cant he can organise someone to do it.
I have emailed Jackie about when i need the video camera, and this will be provided for me.
The outcome will be a series of still images and a couple of minutes of video footage, presented in a slideshow, with myself as a voice over talking about the experience.
