BRAINSTORMIN'

1. What should our site be?
I'm thinking a garage. Emphasized sound would be cool, plus it's dark enough for the lights.

2. How will it be performed?
Yikes! I visualize everything being super abstract and fluid movements. I wish we could incorporate glow paint.

3. Theme?
RAGE.

4. What are we performing?

Open house brainstorm - Erica

1. What should our site be?
Obviously we will have to be in one of the rooms with a ceiling in order to lower the lights enough for a long-exposure picture. I think we should have as plain or monochromatic a background as possible for our performance so that the lights we use stand out more vividly. Will we use multiple colors of lights? I think that would have a cool effect.
2. How will it be performed?
I think we could give each person a certain shape to try to make while playing (spirals, circles, zig-zags etc) but not really choreograph anyone's movements. I think we shouldn't stand in one place when we perform, but trade places and overlap so that we have a cohesive light painting instead of several small groupings of shapes.
3. Theme?
My suggestion is that it could be a focus on movement, and we could emphasize each individual's motions for the audience and then maybe highlight the combination of several people's motions working together? I don't know...
4. What are we performing?
I think we need to compile our respective instruments and tools and things that we're going to/want to use in our performance and work from there. Once we know what we have, it'll be easier to decide what to play.
5. I know there were five things but I can't remember what the last one was. Sorry.
