The first daily exhibition we arrived at the North same wine
bar at 10 o'clock as a group to just go over some final detailing like checking
and sound effects. This also give us chance to make sure that our space was to
our liking and that we were ready to prepare and be opened to the public. as I
personally sat there as first space that you entered as you came down the
stairs of Purgatory I had all sorts of mixed feelings just before we opened a
narrow opening time was 11 AM. Which are praising the almost immediately
provoked then we had many students come into our exhibition this seemed
overwhelmed because of the sound and the darkness that they were walking into I
myself was deathly feeling the pressure and the needs of heart in to speak to
these people. I gave them a clipboard and on the clipboard with sheets are
categorised name date time email address and signature I asked him to sign in,
first they seemed a little confused and I even had one person ask if this was
the exhibition, differently told under the yes it was and it was a part of the
exhibition space. This made me feel very near us in my first fear the people
wouldn't grasp the idea of my work. But they did so and sat down and I could
see them pouring through my magazines and as they looked around they seemed
slightly overwhelmed about what was surrounding them. After the first four
people had come through our doors I felt slightly more at ease and quite
surprised how many people were willing to give me as much information as I had
asked for my contact sheet. As time went on by at 1145 we had had 17 people in
I personally was chuffed at the amount of interest that we had for our
exhibition but by 11:45 I became extremely near us knowing that my lecturers
were on their way. By 10 to 12 hour lecturers were coming through the door,
instantly needs correcting stress panic among other emotions how they would
react to MySpace alone never mind the rest. But the pit of my stomach I knew
that our exhibition worked well because we all led on to each other's spaces
mine was the waiting the approach of death and confessing your sims with a
timely and almost wanting sound that get killed through the hall and that's how
I saw our exhibition space. So I calmly handed my clipboard and to the
lecturers and asp into signing and once they had signed in hiding calmly told
them that they needed to take seat within the waiting area. Once again panic as
I saw my lectures leaning in to have a look at the magazine covers that I had
placed within MySpace as they were planning are part I felt an almost
immediately need to go over asked them not to but I contain myself in panic and
stuck to reading my books that were on my desk. From there then I ascertained
that they could move on and experience the rest of the exhibition as they
walked past me a sale relief. After they had had a look around the entire
exhibition they gather dust and asked if we could go upstairs and have a quiet
word panic once again thinking that possibly we had done something wrong or
that they disliked it. But it was only a short interval where they asked us a
few questions aboutand if we think that it worked and we will also pulled up on
a few health and safety and location issues, where it was pointed out that it
may become difficult for students to actually locate the exhibition from there
then we put up a few more posters outside of the bar come into the bar and at
the top of the stairs where the exhibition was problem solved. The second issue
that was brought up was there were no warning signs about the stairs with
stairs had had rubble on them which was to give that 80 feeling of adding to
the atmosphere that they were coming into which I'd make sure that there were
no physical stones on the actual steps to norm would hurt themselves but there
was no warning which is a hazard so we also quickly created a sign that we
stuck at the top of the stairs and at the door stating warning caution of
stairs which then I felt more comfortable about. The lecture seemed quite happy
overall of our work and then moved on to the next exhibition. By 1:30 we had
had a complete summary of 40 people come into a exhibition space. As time went
on I felt more and more comfortable speaking people and tell them what to do
and it was surprisingly how fast time actually flew by. But by 2 o'clock myself
and my group decided that we needed a break purely because the atmosphere the
cold and because of Ole’s sound that was echoing around the vault that we could
not take it any more. Which I think is a good thing that we had created such a strong
atmosphere dogma once we had come upstairs it was a whole different thing the
light sort of the reality that we were facing of the spaces were completely
different and myself personally and I know within my group we were quite happy
that we had accomplished one of our main goals. We went back again by 3:30 to
continue on with our exhibition by this point I must admit I was very tired but
was still hoping for more people to arrive and exhibition. In my personal area
I found a number of people with asthma in the time we would tell them that I
did not know the time which I had made sure did not work but found a number of
people were looking at their phones. And also while sat down there feelings as
people that visited our exhibition I noticed a number of them took a number of
the leaflets to understand work which again myself and my group were quite
happy with and that is quite diffuser students that came understood my work and
quite happily looked through the magazines which I think really did help them grasp
a little better what they were doing sitting in a waiting room. And also I
noticed that I have mentioned before in number of posts that high have decided
to our display to magazines on the chairs in forcing the people to look at the
titles to help them understand the space but with the cup diet placed into
MySpace was either moved or sat upon, and must omit this did annoy me slightly
but it made me aware how people can be so arrogantly blind to the simplest
things in their surrounding areas. I think I can only account for three people
that actually sacked on the other side to the coat and realising that the space
had been taken. By 5 o'clock I was extremely tired and so was my group we had
chosen to close by 5:30. Thanks to my signing in sheet we were able to carry up
how many people throughout our first day of our exhibition had come through our
doors and worked out as 62 people had visited our exhibition space and when I
had to hold my group this they were static and personally saw Zoe that our
first day we had had Sony people and to the point where we had three students
came back three times and each time brought more people with them because they
personally loved our exhibition so much and that for me meant that we had
exceeded at the site-specific project and myself are my group had worked very
hard to create this hellish atmosphere they think that we did so well and I
must admit that I am personally sinning by being proud of myself and I know my
group are as well.
