the pointy end of the project...

i cannot believe how time is flying. I have missed sharing the progress of the project with the task of living,funnily enough, creating significant time constraints to the luxury of sharing this adventure!

We are now so close to the completion of the project it is a bit overwhelming. This point has always been the stage we were most concerned about - the actual transfer of such a significant number of articles, so many many more than we had ever initially anticipated.

The team of the Global Dialogue Foundation continue to support us with their encouragement and advice and have lead us down another track - that of video footage and representation of the project.

In preparation for an event in Melbourne, we have been invited to share the project on a larger scale, via pictures and video footage of interviews and the path the project has travelled. It is a fine time line and Karen has been working so hard it is overwhelming to watch. With far more techno knowing than I have, Karen has attempted into the early hours of many mornings to create footage that is able to be used, along the way striking gremlin after gremlin regarding distortion and misbehaviour of the footage as it was shifted from place to place ie computer, usb, movie making mode etc. It will be in the mail today by fast post to global dialogue foundation to see if it is what they are looking for.

If it isn't, it does mean that we still have archival, significant information regarding the path we have travelled and no doubt there will be a place for it somewhere some how.

But how great would it be if our story was viewed at Federation Square in Melbourne?????
