Hi M,

There will be a fantastic installation in my basement - a multi colored plastic chamber, containing men(including myself, women too if any sign on, but none have yet) and old wood, a small fire... in the act of woodworking with a twist i.e. wilderness, religiosity, nakedness - building a boat, whether or not it will float...? Only one viewer at a time will be let down to see, in gradual intervals throughout the night. There will be a camera inside the chamber set to be used by the viewer with a trigger release. The viewer doesn't hold the camera. The viewer will take a picture of his/her self along with whatever action of the woodworkers is in the frame. We're also working with an idea about having the viewer cast a vote - by giving them a choice of trigger buttons, but we're still figuring that out. The picture image will be sent to the above floors, viewed on a screen of some kind. Upstairs there will be food, live music & performance, discourse. The only way to keep up on what's happening in the basement will be to have people going down and sending images up. Also, upon arrival, guests will be asked if they want to work on the boat and really get down.
Hope you can make it.
Peter

Can we keep the picture that we take? Can it get emailed to us?
