Continuing on some of the experimental work being done for my Concept Development course at RMIT University Vietnam, I've decided to expand the visualizing information exercise into an arts workshop during my arts residency at the Singapore Management University.

Beginning with the poetry of Singaporean writer Cyril Wong, workshop participants will interrogate the text for information and inspiration that will carry on into the development of art projects. Given the short time frame of the workshop, it will be extremely condensed and I don't know what to expect. I suppose that we could develop prototypes and sketches for art works that might be realized later and/or devise scripts for performing the text.

On Saturday, I'll be giving a presentation on some recent projects including The Mekong at the Asia Pacific Triennial.
