1000 VECTORS
10 DAYS

tba.1000vectors:10days.2006
Perhaps I was inspired by the space?
  Perhaps I breathed too many fumes at Prints for PICA? Perhaps it was dreams about the aerial dance of Project Bandaloop?

1000 VECTORS : 10 DAYS is an engaging and innovative sculptural installation / performance art piece during the T:BA Festival. This collaborative project will assist with expanding T:BA into the visual arts with a dynamic sculptural installation.

tba.1000vectors:10days.2006

The installation will create a 1,000 force vector sculpture over ten days in the W+K atrium.
Before the Noontime chats, three performers will install 100 vectors each morning.  We will be suspended from the wood beams high above in the ceiling space.

tba.1000vectors:10days.2006

The 1,000 vectors will grow over the entire duration of the Festival, giving patrons an opportunity to see the work emerge organically. The sculpture is inspired by the kinetic forces of people moving each day, while it symbiotically attaches to the space's structural steel and concrete.
[The vectors will be designed to not impede daily work of W+K staff, or impose upon any fire / life safety code issues.]

Through a choreography of suspension, rappelling, and movement in the three-axis of space; Fredrick Zal will create the sculptural installation. Capra J'neva Iso Ilya Iomagdalen Deví and Zigzag Montefusco will assist in the works formation while they are similarly gliding through the air. Elodie Massa will create a series of scintillating and spartan costumes to enhance our movements and flow through space.
