Live East

On Saturday 13th June we will be launching our Live East festival at Norwich Arts Centre. The festival will consist of ten site-specific time-based works by artists from the region (Colchester, Norwich, Great Yarmouth, Attleborough, Cambridge and Ipswich). We have been offered support from Colchester Arts Centre, Norwich Arts Centre and Norfolk County Council, in order to produce a map/programme of events and a specific website. We will publish more details as soon as we have confirmation from other funders. Fingers crossed…

Longwinded in Five Parts

Dot Howard, Michael Ridge and Holly Rumble performed ‘Longwinded in Five Parts’ at the SPILL Festival National Platform (National Theatre Studios) on 18th April 2009. Here’s a review by Eleanor Hadley Kershaw (from http://www.spilloverspill.blogspot.com/):

Next Live Art Platform: 22nd March

The kind people at Norwich Arts Centre have let us use the auditorium again for our next platform event. It will be open to the public from 2.30pm-4pm Sunday 22nd March (set up from 1.30pm). Any o/o/o members who would like to try a piece out, now is your chance. If you aren’t yet a member, and have something you would like to perform, please email us at otherotherother@live .com for details.

Live Art Platform

Thanks to all the performers and audience who attended the live art platform on 6th December at Norwich Arts Centre. It was great to test out ideas and to have feedback at the end. See the new page ‘Live Art Platform NAC’ for a few grainy photos. For the next one, I’ll sort out some better filming…

Calling Artists in the Eastern Region…

O/O/O Eastern Region Project
To take place in April/May 2009

Other/Other/Other is preparing a funding application for an exciting new project, and would like to hear from practitioners in the Eastern region. The artists will be commissioned to make a piece of live work in, and about, a place they have built a relationship with. The ‘performances’ will take place over a few weeks, linked by a widely distributed tourist map. We intend to create an alternative route around the region, taking in ephemeral events instead of permanent structures, developing the audience’s awareness of these alternative practices and of how buildings can be re-imagined. The map will show where the artists’ work is/was, including the live dates, and a website will be built to house documentation as it appears.

To be considered for the project please present a 300 word proposal, including the name of the place and your relationship to it, a single A4 CV, and 3 images of previous work.

When writing the proposal, please refer to the Other/Other/Other manifesto (on the “About” page). We support live, durational, and site-specific work. Please consider how the work will exist afterwards as documentation on the website. Do you want to make a straight video document, or would it be more appropriate to write about the experience? Let us know if you have made contact with the owner of the place, and have their support, OR if you are going to do a surreptitious work without their permission.

Deadline for proposals: 13th December
Email to: otherotherother(at)live.com

We will be submitting our funding application in early January, based on these proposals.
