april 1 // 4:00-5:00pm
Front space of the flying machine has an open extra pocket for all of the travelling dancers.
they think they are travelling far but actually they are flying around on circles until they start spinning the other way when they twirl.
On each wing a wing walker walks up and down. She never falls that mary-anne-sally. The flyer flies low with kites. The pilot steers from
the back of the thing. Looking way down the nose, and with wing walker visibility. They sit sometimes.
Twelve understandings of height:
1. distance between group and top
2. distance from atmosphere to the base of the top of a something
3. space a thing makes up
4. space that all other things are not from tip to toe
5. space that gets forgotten when the sun tries to sneak by
6. where the yo-yo comes back
7. something that is stretchy
8. a thing with a top but not spinning
9. something that probably doesn't spin

APRIL 3 /:/ 5:09PM
TWO PEOPLE STAND ON THE HILL
YOU (PERSPECTIVE OF PERSON 3) SEE THEM FROM A FAR
PERSON 1 (shouting): did you bring the balloons?
PERSON 3 (also shouting): no! but they had some wooden building blocks
PERSON 1 + 2 shout some crap about how wooden blocks don't float the way balloons do
PERSON 3 STARTS RUNNING UP THE HILL
+ STARTS THROWING THE BUILDING BLOCKS AT PERSONS 1 + 2
[[cut to building blocks on the grass spelling out "title of movie"]]
SPACEMAN: the goldfish in my house are named geoffrey and grenadine. They travel loudly around their bowl. I travel silently, there are no waves in my fish bowl head space. But their fishbowl head space is wet. Very wet. Not sticky though I know they wish it stickier. I tried putting seaweed in the bowl but they scoffed at me, they thought I was taunting them, trying to turn them into my dinner.

APRIL 4 ? not really but this is what i would have said
someone in a big suit tells their dog friend that if the dog wanted to pursue a worthwhile
career in rain catching then the dog would have to likely purchase a large unused swimming
pool and build up a large all-encompassing slanted wall for the rain to get catched from a wider surface area.
the dog retorts with this idea that if a whole field was dug up into holes and little tubes
came up from each one into one larger vat then they would probably end up with just as much
APRIL 5
The front and back half of a horse extend like a slinky
APRIL 6 quarter to three in the afternoon
a runner is running with a large mug full of (hot) coffee
the runner is mistaken by onlookers as a swimmer
as the runner runs on (for about 5 minutes) the runner tries to sip the (hot) coffee
the coffee jitters out of the cup slowly but it falls over the runner
the runners shirt will be full of (hot) coffee by the end of their route
someone hands the runner a balloon when the mug is empty
april 7...............
two clouds stare suspiciously at each other through a
column
their cups are empty
one pulls a snake from behind its back
the other (zoom into head) starts thinking
the other cloud becomes the container for the thought
APRIL EIGHT quarter past two in the afternoon
Thinking of breaking the picture
solid parts make up the whole but the solid parts cannot appear too sure of themselves
though it is not as if they are cow-ard-ly
she is pop princess (the cubist picture)
assuming now that these "broken" parts are just folded in the other direction
actually i don't even think "broken picture" or "breaking" the picture is the action/vision here
((not wishing to recreate those images due to their "unique nature" as "art 'objects'", knowing they themselves are not the key but just together make a whole))
((i believe i am WRONG in believing that by bringing these "art'objects'" together in one place they would make any more sense than if they are seen one at a time in complete isolation))
APRIL 9 TWELVE THIRTY in the afternoon drinking my morning cup of coffee
#p
(sand on my personal surface area
i took the carpet out and stood the couch up on bricks
thinking about how most of my time spent in the pursuit of making /a body of work/ is
used to move tables and couches from one end of the room to the other
door + fridge + microwave + broken microwave = an interruption
//later.. 11and a quarterpm drinking my evening cupofbeer//
i've been imagining this "new floor" ordeal [new floordeal]
picturing a swimming pool in front of this wall
likely the most favoured wall that i have
now, instead of getting "above the action" - though always still "at-level"
its a knee knocking slippery slidy jump under)
flea flinging flare frontal frowning feuding friends from fate fairing false flyers foregoing fantasy

April 15 kicking day
place shaken bottle rocket into a strangers bag
//run//
watch them get shot up into the sky
catch sight of a hot air balloon
watch as the stranger grabs onto the hot air balloon
watch the hot air balloon get lifted by the stranger
see as the bottle rocket loses steam and the stranger bounces into the basket of the hot air balloon
catch the stranger and the hot air balloon driver pointing at you
run away from the hot air balloon falling down to squash you like you are a tiny bug and the hot air balloon is a regular sized foot.
April 16 nine fifty five pm miller high life the champagne of beers
a "girl" with no sheep calls to little bo peep and asks for a cup of sheeps yogurt for the breakfast "she" is prepping,
the breakfast must be kept in sight for the duration of two long hours or else it will not be tasty so the "girl" cannot take "her"
eyes away for longer than a blink of time or the breakfast will be ruined and no one will find it yummy.
April 17......
The outer case for the [object] was harder than rock itself
No bird could peck through it
The sound of the pecking created a tornado sound
twelve days of pecking resuted in a thunderstorm
Lightning struck the case of the [object] and the case cracked
inside was a quail egg..
April 18
left toes don't work but right ones do

April 20 - happy days
getting on top of things like climbing the ladder to the top of things like taking the stairs to the top of thing like if i can stay on top of things then i am on top of all those things and there are no things that are on top of myself or all of these things that i am on top of like if im on top of things then i am still grounded but not grounded like the things are on top of me like i am on top of things but none of the things are on top of me because i climbed the stairs or the ladder or scaled the brick wall so from my vantage point i am standing on top of things and keeping on top of them but not like tetris more like donkey kong is throwing barrels and i jump but catch the barrel and stop it from rolling more and i add it to my treasures but the treasures are all the things that im getting on top of and staying on top of.

notes to self:
-create an image bank
-take notes on the text (the anxious object)..report back
-rewire lights at the studio+ plug the tape player back in + keep tapes in a less precarious/more accessible place,
-begin the costume/prop making process
- build the bike:
0.5. finish securing handlebar
1. attach freewheel to back wheel
2. attach tubes + tires to front + back wheels
3. crankset + bottom bracket - figure out ratio - add pedals if needed
4. size + attach chain
5. attach brakes to -- handlebars -- wheels
6. tape on handlebars
