Site-Specific is all about change.

Through showing our work to the module leader, we have been told to strip back our idea and see the simplicity of how gravity reacts with the human body , suggestions that we were given was to see how gravity eventually restricts what the body can endure. so for example, having a member of our group lift another for a duration of time and to have the audience witness how the body responds. With these suggestions in mind we have been working on the idea of different activities/tasks that will show how gravity has a important part in how long the body can endure these activities/tasks. Gravity will win, but this will not be the complete focus of the performance.  with the use of a birdy which us a small light, this will allow us to be able to highlight different areas of the body which are showing the effects of the strain. we would be able to use live and videoed work and this will allow us to work in a post performance aspect that we have always have wanted to put into our performance. Our other ideas have involved music but with a new idea we have decided to stay away from the music and have thought about using equipment like ECG and microphones and this would allow us to have the natural sounds around us and of the body as a soundtrack to the whole performance.  Also as my title suggests to succeed in the concept of site specific performance you have to be ok with change. our site has recently changed from shops in grantham to Lpac studios, I believe this will be well suited for our performance as we just need a black box nothing visual around us as our performance will create a visually pleasing experience.  I have realised that through stripping back to the simplicity of an idea the true beauty comes through. the simplicity of physicality is the title that fits our performance perfectly.
