things will happen hopefully. well not hopefully as it will happen if I make it happen. Anyway I was back in glór this morning which was good, as when I’m here I just do what I’m supposed to do. As opposed to lads of other shit I might get distracted with at home. I have a performance coming up this Friday at 126 gallery, Galway, [...]

so above are images of the performance in Shannon. It went off well logistically. I am going to make a copy of the notes I took before and immediately after performing. 'Weird liminal space. Purgatory- stuck between places. Waiting to start. Anti climactic but anticipatory. Everyone hanging about. People walking past pulling bags. Usual airport every spectrum of humanity. Now and then flight announcements.  Xmas music [...]

I have the Pack, Unpack performance this Thursday in Shannon Airport. I am going to pack the suitcase again now to try a trial before the proper trial tomorrow when I can use the glór studio. I am feeling good-ish about this at present. Anyone I have spoken to about the performance has related to it on some level. I feel however that I am [...]

Here is the link to the film Paul made of the crawl performance. https://youtu.be/dNaO74Mj-uY Night Crawl. Performed October 5th Ennis, Co CLare. Film by Paul Corey. Paul's film is his own edit of the performance. He is going to submit it to some film festivals which hopefully will allow him some accrediation which he very much deserves as he did all this for free. I [...]

ok at least I submitted it- it took me 3 days to write it- I figure when I inevitably get the rejection, or the PFO Please Fuck Off as Emma who curated my First Friday talk calls them, I will have utilized the concept of the prooposal in some other form by then so it willhave been worth while. yada yada. thought I'd get this [...]

Im having one of those weeks- when I find myself just treading water, managing to manage, keeping a rational thought path as my dominant path and trying, trying not to step out onto all those little paths leading off the main path, anxiety, worry, panicky feelings, despair, self disgust, inertia, not good enoughness, general bleakness. I could list all the particular things I am currently [...]

You know when you find yourself waiting for something? Like for a phonecall or an email you really want to get. Or a letter you are hoping will arrive. And you find yourself thinking about this a LOT, and almost starting to shape your thoughts around the outcome. Letting your destiny lay in someone elses hands.
