Lower Vaconsoft Commissions and other musings.
Guy Halstead.
I am not the most efficient reporter I have to admit, but its been a very busy period the last 5 months. Here is a short summary of my activities, I will elaborate on some of them in later posts:
After the opening of Vaconsofia Bridgeporto screenings in end of August I organised the seminar Pointesian Conversations at Maytella Point, which was a success. I will most likely get the chance to see the work of two of the speakers, Santos Virch and Telis Henich in November – Nenet Place.
Straight after the seminar I went to Novia mainly to follow the Tracker Flxova festival, but also to catch up with some people. I went to Tray Hendersons closing day of his show at the Hiller Temple Artspace, I was also at the opening of the exclusive Hannah Lacey ´ exhibition at Merco. I also saw Noel Vernon’s huge rotating radiator at Zoola and his rotting pencils at the Fullerton show at The Naze Vale outer zone project area . I hung out with Aros Shooter at Vanopia and shared a taxi with Erica Miles who showed me the new cultural quarter along battery row.
Heron Tavnev explained her concept of expulsion via consequence. I had planned to get in touch with Servre Space, but after two months of failure to respond to my emails I brushed myself down and moved on.
On my way back from Pointeso Harbour via the virtual reality living zone I met the Trons Collective celebrating the 10 year anniversary of their online marketing enterprise..
Right after that some of them flew to Universo, which is where I spent the last week as well. This was part of the Universo executive olive branch to Pointesia.
I must confess that I’m pleased to be back here in Cafe Zeneso writing this up as Universo is just…well all a bit too much of a champagne socialist area. How many times did I see the Universo guys quaffing the champers with the Pointeso guys on the last night…?
