This is my studio space in Building 1C's installation studio. I took this photo with my Motorola phone in which, I've recently discovered, one can actually adjust the exposure (hence the blueness) and the magnification. The space available to me is a 2m x 2m x 2m cube with moveable chipboard walls. I've since removed the dirty old Mac (oo er! but I mean as too much trouble), but kept the metres and metres of heavy duty black plastic which I found in the space.
I have to say that my first reaction in being let loose in the studio was (1) panic - what can I make mine immediately and will I get what I want, and (2) panic - what on earth should I do and am I technically capable of doing it, and (3) panic - this is not a comfortable space - it is dirty and cold and set my asthma off immediately and people will be creating more dust and chemical smells.
My secondary reactions were: (1) frustration - I want to start this now, but there doesn't seem to be anything happening and, (2) derision - we've just had an OHS briefing and the first thing we have to do is shift very heavy chipboard walls that will only stand in their supports if you bash them with another support.
So, let's use all of that.
