Have you written your thank you letters yet?



So, the exhibition of the audiovisual collaboration, Systems out of Chance, is down. Dismantling the exhibition after a creative journey that began over the best part of eighteen months ago felt akin to pulling down the Christmas decorations. A new year, then. The super sharp portrait monitors are back in their boxes, the six speakers playing three pieces of music simultaneously (and for keeping them in time with the imagery with not a fag paper between themselves or the visual triptych - thank you Mick the Mac man) are packed away, the ltd edition DVDs are ready to be sold* (thanks screen print Ben - you're a star) and the 16 page booklets** are ready to be dished out to anyone polite/daft/interested enough to ask me about the whole thing... (big thanks also to Sam Gathercole for the Six Chapters on Systems out of Chance), thanks to Parfitt Gallery curator Michael Hall for your experience, guidance, patience, and bone dry sense of humour and anyone else who chipped in. My day job boss would call it a team effort and it would be churlish of me to disagree. Thanks to those that attended the private view and of course, thanks to composer Joe - I went into the gallery for one last listen today and it sounded wonderful.
