..

The Date was nice, unexspected, but nice. Now working on improving the AnimaGaga suit, for my third guest, director of a theatre group who performs a play called Psychiatrie! (psychiatry!)- not just in theatre halls, but also in front of students of the subject, imitating a set of disorders, from trauma, to anxiety, to schizophrenia and the like. My fourth guest, or maybe they'llbe swapped, time-wise, will be a group of nudists. :D we are as yet trying to figure out how to handle nudity on TV- maybe using black boards being held in front of the genitals..^^.. Well. Fooling around with the city's biased conservativism a bit, and number four will require a costume for it, as well..^^.. my take on Castelbajacs Nude Dress. :)

Nick sent me some old stuff via Nelly who did her internship at her place- and, luckily, there is a couple of meters of black jersey, too, I had almost forgotten about. Saves money.. which I duly spent on MY OWN turn of the century monoscope, for less than Vienna university's rental fee. ;)

Photos will follow as soon as I figure out how to synchronize my damn new BB with my Laptop. :/

No time to fiddle around, really.. :// ..reminds me my LP needs service, and I need to call a friend.

Name-Games.

:) the name for my TV feature will finally be Live:s, BUT since Live:s is a series of pilots, sort of, for Alternate Lives (alternate, like in alternate (=parallel) universe) , a bigger format I am currently writing a concept for in English, the titles for Dorf TV will now look like the following:

Live:s (an Alternate Lives feature)

Part 1: Anthony Clair Wagner -

on hybrid bodies and liquid identities

Part 2: Prof. Dr. Franz Hörmann-

on the end of money (as we know it)

Falling into..

.. bed, this time around. ;) Up since 5.30, and busy until now.. what a day.

During the first interview I was really, really nervous, and my English was pretty accordingly. I should have talked to Anthony before that, but..well. My phone is broken..and I have to get a new one, so calling him wasn't an option, though I would have liked to very much, a day or two before the interview. He wore a cool, brightly-coloured Monster costume I really liked. :) Looked a bit like Sesame street. Or Chewbacca from Star Wars meets the Rainbow Parade.

The second interview with Franz went really well, and we went for lunch after the recording-  he invited me. :) His costume consisted of a red clown doctor nose..;D... knowing him a bit better that was just perfect. I just missed the fly he is usually wearing..which would have complemented the nose just perfectly.

Both interviews and follow-up talks were really interesting, and both of my guests were really patient with and nice to me. All in all, I am satisfied.

..as I say, WHAT A DAY. I think that with some more inspiring people, and more positive experiences, I will be up to normal standard again in half a year or a year- maybe. Still.. I would be faster- and much happier- living abroad.Anthony mentioned the queer scenes in NY and, specifically, in Berlin.. and even though I am a pretty adapted, heterosexually oriented woman with a tendency towards long-standing, two person relationships, I might have a blast enjoying the diversity there..on visual, and other, levels. ;) Hope they're friendly.

Anthony invited me to come see him at home sometime, and Franz, as usual, promised to include me in his projects as soon as they have funding. Let's see.. all I care for now is my bed...^^...
