I was involved with a pair of performances this past weekend for ‘a horse of air’ doing video work. I didn’t get any shots of the piece I helped with (1 of 4 works presented at the Metro Theatre here in Victoria), but I snapped this nifty shot of the piece before.

Things continue to develop.
We are nearing completion of Grand Theft Bicycle and an opening date has been confirmed for the beginning of June. Saddam looks the best out of the new models, hopefully I will get around to posting some of the images soon. I’m helping out Erin Robinsong with a perfomance piece at the end of the month at the Metro Studio, please plan to attend if you like lightening or clever things.
A few weekends ago I had the pleasure of using some gear from MediaNet and have decided to become a member as soon as humanly possible. If you’re into media stuff it is a great investment and a very humane way of meeting people with similar interests.
After a short email exchange with Russ Reilander I have decried that the upcoming edition of Etherbot will be primarily blog-ficiton. Email me immediately if you don’t know what blog-fiction is and then google it, you won’t be sorry.
Over the weekend I am going to mostly be working on Grand Theft Bicycle and (hopefully) on some video work for Portable Stories.
