Rima (painting) participated in an improv art event at the Foundry in Shoreditch near Old Street tube stop. While a violinist, bass clarinetist, electric guitarist, cellist, xaphoonist (the last 3 are all the same person) and vocalist improved music, Rima worked on a painting, taking inspiration from the music. A writer probed the audience for thoughts while this was all going on and read allowed a compilation of these thoughts. I was quite impressed with the whole event. The instruments were not played in traditional manners and lead to a very hypnotic sound that allowed your mind to meander from Rima's painting to wherever your mind led you. This event was organized by Openned. Check out their website for other events they organize.

So one is compelled to ask, where did your mind meander to while listening to this hypnotic music?
ReplyDeleteNothing profound. Naturally there was contemplation of the event (mostly what was going on in the minds of the artists) and how the audience was responding. At times I thought of personal things.
