METHOD an artist is invited to talk about a topic of their choice. In a few preliminary chats with the organiser, the format of the event is decided, the kind of audience the artist would like and who to extend their own invitation to - another, who may contribute something on the speaker’s theme in the shape of a reading, slide talk, musical or other performance or by taking the role of interviewer, questioner, critic and/or vocal member of the audience. Similarly, each invited audience member extends their own invitation to another, effectively doubling the amount of guests. Guests are asked to prepare themselves for the evening through a little prior research on the theme.

| PREMISE one and another creates a fertile ground for thinking and talking constructively and enjoyably about what we do and how and why we’re doing it. The talks and subsequent discussions expand the discourse to areas that inform our work, methods and language employed and look more closely at the things in our lives that are intrinsically linked with our practice. What does creativity mean in our lives and how does the way we live affect the way we create? The aim is to speak a language that helps throw light onto these aspects rather than allowing their meaning to be obscured.
All guests play an active role in the evening and partake in the discussion following the speaker's contribution. |
