A few short stop motion clips from the final day of the performance pod build.
The Kitchen Smells
|
Lost and Found
|
I popped into the Cafe today to do a quick bit of cleaning and...good grief the smell that was coming from the kitchen! It was as if a horde of mango's had exploded across every available worktop leaking a sour, rancid liquid onto the floor. I will hunt down those responsible.

As I was picking up discarded cans of cherry flavoured Tango and decomposing pizza I found the item pictured below. I believe it once belonged to someone's ankle. I will store the item at a secret location until the owner steps forward to claim it.

The Big Build The Final Day
Seats with wheels...confirmed. Arts awards...confirmed. Performance pod...confirmed.
The Big Build Day 2
Arts, it turns out, is hard work. Derren sat at a sewing machine for hours on end whilst not so tall Jordon did a bit of every job going. Chelsea wore the glue gun out and Taylor hit things with a hammer shaped like the letter T.
The Big Build Day 1
Chelsea and Taylor were the first to arrive with Alex and not so tall Jordon quick on their heels. We stuck things together, we dyed things, we ate food and we discovered that Mr Chris Murphy can play every movie theme song every written. Mo, tall Jordon, Kayla, India and Lucy, where were you? We missed you. If you can, come and join us tomorrow anytime from midday till 8pm!

Photography Competition Winner!!!
Taylor has only gone and won the photography competition! Goodall photography stated that "Palm Trees was chosen as the image that the judges could look at every day. The view point (looking up & the subject matter make this a nice composition. The judges liked the contrast between the natural, chaotic lines made by the plant leaves against the strong, ordered lines of the man made materials of the ceiling above."
George also received praise from the judges for his submission, "Turbo Flames: chosen because the judges liked the way the image has captured a sense of movement in the flame & that also evokes a sense of heat & noise in the viewer."
Thanks to everyone that took part!
Wonderful things number two!
