Mapping Lucy: May 2006
http://mappinglucy.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 23, 2006. As a fragmented and energetic series of events experienced at different times in different ways by many different people. I’m still not quite sure exactly what it was that took place.which could be the point. I’m uncertain how you might measure the success of the project: by the number of people who experienced it? Whether they had a good time? Whether they learnt something new about their city? By the range of people that came together to make it happen? Paradoxically after a year...

Rivers as 'quiet dialogues' and other environmental perspectives of Ala Plastica. Friday, September 22, 2006. I took the bus to La Plata on Wednesday, a city an hour south of Buenos Aires, for the second time. There I met Alejandro Meitin, a member of Ala Plastica. A group of artists who I have been ‘imagining’ now for over a year. As usual, it was my friend Hana. We generated a practically indescribable warp of intercommunication with innumerable actions that developed and increased through reciprocity:...

In the meantime, in preparation for working with m7red on one of their projects called Flood! I have been hastily reading Disaster: Hurricane Katrina and the Failure of Homeland Security.

Dan Piterra of the Detroit Collaborative Design Center. Antoine Bryant of Project Row Houses. In Houston who was easily the tallest person at the conference told stories about fusing art with the restoration of historic ...

The walk that never was. Saturday, June 10, 2006. Orthe story of how Lucy turned up breathlessly in Rome to participate in a five day ‘research-walk’.a month early. Errrrr. Because an email from Stalker finally arrived. including details of a project happening that week (so I thought), Campagna Romana. An opportunity I decided I couldn’t miss! And because the last weekend in Berlin and the journey home had not yet been fixed .because the fickle impulsive in me began to stir and the flights were reaso...
