Progress (slowly but surely)

Right, so I have 5 days until my installation is set up, and then when what was once in my brain is out in the open for to see / judge /  encounter. This will be very much an experiment as I have no way of trying this out before the set up.

So as you know this project consists of to elements, an interactive "ball" room and a film of hair-ography. The ball room is almost ready (bamboo is ordered, balls have been filled with hair, and the structure is ready for construction). 

The film however is no-where close. I have a series of movements for the hair-ography so in theory my 'choreography' of the piece has been finalised, I am still awaiting the delivery of my new all singing all dancing camera capable of recording 60fps in 720p which is required for the filming of the piece. I am praying it comes today so I have three full days to film and a full day to edit, if it doesn't arrive by Saturday I will have to have a creative shuffle, and maybe film in poor quality (iphone) or film in a studio instead of out on location. (Which is vast countryside) or I don't know, I can't think about it until the worst happens.

I'm keeping relatively calm about the whole thing to be honest and am treating this project as a formal showing instead of a polished piece. So breathe keep calm and whip yo' hair!
