Ahh, it's so much already.
Several people are working on photos, of the execution, and as Ueber-Art.
Martin is thinking about composing a song.
Courtney F. send incredible much input and great criticism, and she is working on performances, writing, and she sent the Macbeth quote: "There is a famous quote by Shakespeare that Lady MacBeth says when she is going a little bonkers and imagining that she is trying to wash off the blood on her hands after killing the king, her husband. It is usually portrayed onstage with Lady Macbeth on her knees, desperately trying to wash her hands, even though they are already clean to the audience's eyes.
"Out damn spot, out I say" - Lady Macbeth"
Sonja sees "Bloody Hands" from a crime murderer perspective. Quoting the German letter doesn't make much sense right now, I need to translate it, but it's very cool.
Remy showed me an awesome video she filmed about a former IRA? criminal now living in the U.S. It's about repent, physical, mental and emotional wounds that don't heal... A terribly beautiful movie. She also thinks about menstrual blood.
Jean Paul, Remy and I did a photo shoot and video filming and performance last Friday. That was some group action and dynamic, ha. I wanted it to be a documentary of the performance, which was me painting with bloody hands, eagerly trying to feel guilty. It became more of a fashion shoot. Definitely interesting. I can say for myself that I had a great psychological experience with the hands. My essence of that event is that there is absolutely no guilt in the process of producing art.
Veronica told me something about military graphics and red that I didn't understand, but I'm looking forward.
Kitty is planning on hitting somebody and leaving her bloody hands as a trace.
The Baroness just sent me a beautiful email: "Dear Nikki, Strangely enough when I got this I had just dyed my hair red and of course my hands were stained too. So I type with now fading red hands." Phenomenal, really great!
Alex expressed some sick ideas to me, that I first want her to get further with, before I talk about it.
Henning asked me about oil and wants to send work.
Many expressed support and encouragement and asked a lot of questions that made nice discussions.
I have been working hard today on preparing all sorts of things. I created a group on facebook that I will invite to on the second launch dates (august 7th and 8th). Working facebook is quite the (nasty) experience. I sent out a follow up to participants. The business cards came in, so I can basically now start running around with bloody hands and don't have to be artsy cryptic about it. Ha, and much more, but who wants to be boring?
