Am up...

Its half past seven in the morning and I'm up! Been awake and excitable and nervous for a few hours. 47. Some thoughts and questions I could ask and should ask. Images and possible use of time lapse as MF said he might be interested and watched his work - incredible...koyanascatsi...(SP?) comes to mind.

How do I work collectively but have people with clear roles? 47 Memory...collective and individual memory...mediated to become nothing, or more? Or just one view of history than denies others?

Limited and hunted media = chaos South London Press - What am I looking for?

So much could go on and now I'm talking and asking others for involvement and help...and I got 5 replies from texts and calls yesterday:

TC - Accommodation and space to interview in Sep
TA - Will ask about camera people
DS - Look at his photos on Monday
MF - What is project? Money? Accommodation
BN - No money, not possible but good luck

Reminds me I need and want to go back into looking at how Cinema Action worked.

So quickly it can all move and be still at the same time. I'm loving being at home too a sense of homeyness and I like it. (Maybe because I am also doing rather than procrastinating!) I like it when I get things done, which always helps me be a better woman!

Watched Capitalism a love story MM, not that keen, mixture of camera, sweeping shots beautifully framed and then rushed unfocused others but the stories there and the quality makes sense in the story. Overly beautiful shots in this could take away...but 'up the yangetze' had amazing shots and that didn't take away the story...stunning sweeping shots.. but very grounded clearly focused documentary. Lucky to have watched it in Sheffield in 2008, bought it after too. And I will watch more over the coming weeks - drama, doc, installations feed into it, onto this.

Sherlock 3 part drama has been on, texts used in shots, maybe text and emails can more openly be used within a piece as opposed to outside of it. Need to re-look at John Akmofrahs MS at BFI southbank about memory.

Could or should I put you under the banner of rooftop collective? it would feel better and give life and focus to RC outside of just me or us. Do I need permission? Support of 47 officially? Need also to check that with LL. Also £ and process.

Oh la la this project is alive!
