Testing Pipe

Testing our prototype ‘acoustic cannon’ pipe, in Tim Hunkin’s shed, Suffolk. We realised our pipe would be very large and difficult to move from venue to venue so we employed Tim Hunkin (engineer, cartoonist and sculptor) and Graham Norgate to make a generator that would be portable. Tim and Graham assembled the pipe in a couple of days, spending time to make the device easily transportable. Tim and Graham are both excellent craftsman – and Tim has the added advantage of a owning the biggest shed we’ve ever seen! (pictured here).

The strange, white figure standing in the back of this photo is a mock crash-test dummy, made by Tim for The Human Factor (an exhibition, in collaboration with Sarah and others, for the Science Museum, UK).

A Public Exhibition

Brief
– Continuing from the body of work you have undertaken in the previous Alter Ego (or visible cities) produce work for inclusion in a public exhibition

– Work can be free-standing , hang on walls, presented as moving image or other suitable form’s

– You will need to clear the studio of tables, clean the floor and paint the walls in preparation. Make sure you undertake this work in line with your recent Health and Safety induction.

By Monday:
Statement of intent (proposal) – inclusion of the exhibition, how big? how is it presented? wall space? etc.
‘Group Exhibition’

IDEAS
-3D sculptures of Dolls suspended as puppets, experiment with lighting – the placement backdrops? making the already existing painting into a sequence of up to 4? 
set out as a salon type frame, building frames for individual painting?
canape? 3 walls, corner or flat wall?
audio soundtracks, creating an eerie affect to the message I am sending across

The Exhibition
The exhibition will take place in the First year studio and it is your responsibility to organise it. Think about how your work fits along side other students’ work
A public exhibition, so working in a variety of groups you will need to publicise the show, welcome all the public and tidy up after yourselves, different groups might want to focus on different areas. You will need to talk to one another to this happen successfully.


Thursday 6th Dec & open all day
Friday 7th Dec – The work will remain in the studio for assessment 

The Catalogue
Each of you will be required to write a short statement about your work and its relationship to the group themes, to help others to understand the thinking and context behind your work.
Present this writing either alongside your work or in a small publication (which can be either individual or done as a group)
