I went to the Spier Infecting the City meeting at the Obs Community centre and had great fun. I met Margie Mackay http://www.margiemackay.com/ (Australian) and Anthea (South African) who are planning a massive week long clearing and unifing ceremony in Thibault Square,from 13th - 22nd Feb. Involving fire, movement and lots more.
Margie and Anthea took a group of us through a session of expression through movments in space, using entrances and exits.
They will be having introductory meeting for the rest of the week, I highly recomend it.
In my Visual Art capacity I offered to go to second hand clothing stores and look for red clothes. If any one want to join me just let me know.
