SIng it Baby! Art & Culture: Luxury or Necessity?

Once presented to the world, something always seems to happen to one´s ideas: They get tested. My Many Mini Residency was no different that way. Once there, alone in the stark naked, white room, a bright light shining from the ceiling, a big window, there´s no hiding: Does this really hold up? Was my idea as good as I thought it was? For myself I have mixed answers to those questions, but I think that´s less important. More important is how the difference between a Many Mini Residency and other more lengthy ones, is that there is no changing your concept. You have to sit it out. You can´t come back tomorrow and do it differently. I find that both slightly unnerving and exhilarating at the same time. It makes me aware of what I´m doing, and it makes me appreciate process. www.soundingflesh.org
