I want to try my hand at performance art, or rather, recorded performance art. It is interesting to consider whether this is possible, as performance art since the 1960's has strongly relied on the audience to create the art - most notably in the work of Yoko Ono. However I am interested in blending installation, video, performance, dance and text into one big THING - heavily inspired by DV8 Physical Theatre - a performance group who do sort of mix all these together.
For now, anyway, I'm trawling through Youtube Videos of performance art (most of which are in European languages), slowly munching away at a book named simply: 'Performance Art' and scrawling down any ideas that the likes of Patti Smith, Jum Nakao and Lady Gaga bring to me.
More black tea please.
