NOISE Biennial Challenge (with BBC film crew) !


WELL, before i had chance to breathe after the Oriel Davies show, here i was yesterday sat in a cafe in Manchester taking part in a NOISE project! www.noisefestival.com will tell u more about the festival specifically, but basically me and 4 other young creatives under 25 have been selected by NOISE and set a challenge by them and their fine art curator Stella Vine!

in 4 weeks we will host a Biennial exhibition of selected NOISE submissions, we have to find a venue, promote and do everything needed to make it happen all on a tight budget of £500 and whilst this happens the whole thing is being filmed to air on BBC2 later this yr! Stella has helped pre-select some works, and we are in the middle of doing the same and contacting artists etc.

and YES its all being filmed, we have our own camera man following us round, filming the ups and downs and even have been doing 'diary room / loo' sessions!

i am knackared, i will update this as and wen i get chance, tommorro we are ringing artists, looking at possible venues, planning, etc etc, more planning! its all crazily mad that this has happened and will take over my life for the next Month, but im up for the challenge!
