Developments and characters


New artists come to see us and become involved in the project all the time and every time we talk about the project the project evolves and changes slightly, although we are now kind of starting to say the same things all over again: "chaos", "interference", "unfinished", "new structure", "experiment", "letting go of the concept of a masterpiece", "creating something different", "letting go of hierarchies"... However, for some reasons the project seems to be appealing for the newbies (I've become a good seller of the project too by now, since I also feel enthusiasm about it) and we are constantly growing in different directions. It is exciting of course, but also a bit scary - where will we end? Will we manage to keep everyone involved happy and not disappointed in any way? There is responsibilities involved of course, and how will we be able to keep it up in this "powerless structure"?

Jan, aka Jack, came back to the gallery today after one day's rest from the project and retained stability for us here. I'm still curious who will turn into Sawyer to follow up on the "Lost-connotations". Erlend took on the role of carpenter today and I guess that turns him into the architect Michael or something? Myself, I'm eating a lot all the time and am not really contributing creatively but try to keep the social framework easy, and that kind of turns me into Hurley.
