Its all systems go at HANS HQ as we move into the final stages, before the launch of the exhibition on 7th of November.  The technical aspects are being finalised with Steve Carson putting the finishing touches to the responsive video pieces and Darren Joyce working on the audio environment – meanwhile Lee is running around making sure we have all the right technical equipment ready in time for testing the whole thing out. For the rest of us its the usual accellerating experience as we dive headlong into the last two weeks.  As well as putting the exhibition together there’s all the marketing and PR to do, to make sure we get our message across, event planning and logistics and just plain old putting food on the table (when we remember to eat).  We’re looking for volunteers to help with the event – both in the set up and to invigilate the exhibition, so if you can spare us some time and energy, please get in touch with Sandra at sandra@livearts.co.uk – we’d be glad of the help!

Countdown to the Exhibition

It’s only a few weeks to go until the launch of the exhibition at the Mailbox, on November 7th.  We’re all getting very excited and the creative team are beavering away to make what promises to be a very special, stunning piece of artwork.  Please make sure you don’t just come to the launch party, the show will be well worth a visit at a quiet time, when you can really enjoy the contemplative nature of the artwork on offer. Hope to see you there.

Photography workshop 20th September

We’d like to thank everyone who came to the Mailbox, Birmingham, unit 183, between 10.00am and 3pm last weekend to have their photograph taken. Some of these photos will appear in the exhibition ‘Heard and Not Seen’ in November.  We had a great time on the day and took hundreds of photographs of dozens of people from all walks of life – a great addition to the interactive nature of the project.  We’re looking forward to seeing these photographs appear in the final exhibition – and hope those who participated are too!
