Coincidently visitors and workers of Belle Vue were giving talks about their experience's of the Pleasure Gardens and fairground. A trapeze artist, who had worked at Belle Vue was providing information about what life was like for a performing artist. At this point I am collaborating my ideas and processes with Nicole, who is also studying Textiles. We took a dictaphone to record the talk and our plan is to edit this recording. We could potentially pick key words out that relate to our research, and incorporate this with a moving projection.
We also took part in a woodcarving workshop, and made a Belle Vue poster. The workshop was interesting as we were able to listen to peoples memories of the Gardens and zoo. It gave us an insight as to what life was like then, and why Belle Vue was such an exciting place to visit.
