Group 3 Statement: The event involves an interruption / intervention in an already existing combination of affects in our habitual world. Displacing and transforming the function of a space in aid of transcending traditionally viewed areas of use.
Creating an atmosphere by confronting the audience with displaced functions of space and object.
Binocular Football- This is a game of football where all the players must wear binoculars, thus transforming their perception of the space around them.
Red Carpet- Constructing peoples expectations of the spaces
Outside/In- The placement of the grass here will hopefully invite people to linger in the area for longer and thus transform the function of the space.

Spaces of experience
Day dreaming bubble, 1998
Though it was interesting in terms of creating individual space of experience as we discussed last week
http://www.maikosan.com/Kana-thesis/html.Art-as-experience.html
We were talking about how a memory of taste, sell and touch remains more prominant in your memory rather than reading etc.
How do we encorporate this into individual spaces of experience?
here's a link to the matt stokes website on temple bar galleries..he's looking into rave culture, the informality of the these experiences and other stuff

I found Robin Whitmore's "Dream Diary" at
http://robinwhitmoredreamdiary.blogspot.com/
thought it was interesting about memory. I saw a piece in Eva limerich show a couple of years ago, and it was based in a church, people went in and wrote down on piece of paper there favourite childhood memory, and they were all hung up. was effective cause of setting and stuff candles and that. ill try get a link.
I found a few contact deatails for Simon o sullivan from plastique fantastique.
Email address : s.o'sullivan@gold.ac.uk
He has a personal website aswell at www.simonosullivan.net
Hi Katie,
Did we get confirmation about the plastique fantastique?
Heres a link to james turrells light installations quite cool http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVFJ2HTCfWE
Unfortunitly Simon O' Sullivan can not make it for the 12th but we did get word back from Alistor Maclennan and he seemed interested in participating . He wanted to know what his participation would involve so myself and Claire Emailed him yesterday and gave him the choice of doing a performance in relation to the immersive aesthetic or giving a presentation of his work so hopefully all goes well and he decides to be part of the day.Is there any word back on the marching band?
Here is a link to Alistor Maclennan's website
http://vads.ahds.ac.uk/collections/maclennan/index.html
He has writings, performance based work and an overall view of his practice which may have some already existing ties to Spaces of Experience as Immersive Aesthetic which can tie into the seminar.
Although Simon O' Sullivan will not be participating in the seminar there is an interesting event that plastique fantastique are involved in Birmingham in march which would be helpful when trying to articulate the critical frame work of the event of the group on the 12th.

This piece of writing is interesting in relation to what is an event and what does an art event involve.

I think that some of the group have the text already when we were typing up the power point presenation last week.
