Happenings

With Kat, Theresa and Jason today we found a few things that caught interest:
1. a red crepe paper streamer tied to the bridge at its midpoint. 25 metres long. lovely

2. Kat on the rocks washing clothes and spreading them out. in red. installation-type

Things that didn't work:
-dropping dandelions
-person in white in tree
-person in parallel installation on S side of river in white (too receeded and competes with red)

Thoughts:
person in Tree needs tree talk text (theresa working on lung associations)
crepe paper finish line and cheering for joggers and runners is funny
bucket to gather water (25 m string)
Person who only walks on rocks. Another sets and moves them...
anything x 50 people would work. A choir? A school? Volunteers?
Return of the people balancing branches on their heads
Return of the deer in the bush

bears at the picnic table (perhaps before and after)
red,red,red
bikes
golfcarts

the yarnbombing idea was just ok looking- kind of messy and weak...
Now is the time to get some sound and text integrated...

Installation on the Rocks?

Yes. It is fun to voyeuristically observe the Ganges meets River Styx person down below, especially if they colorfully offset the light grey/beige rocks...
