Day EIGHT



Right now I feel like coming back from a day of working on the road (and I'm not making fun of road workers here, once I was one myself). As these stones are actually used to build walls and streets, I'm not surprising myself with these thoughts. 
Anyway, I did what I wrote at day seven; focus on one element. Stones. Back to the basics. It was frustrating and educational. Very good signs. The wind was even stronger than yesterday so it was a perfect try out. I really feel like doing this every day for a few hours, just to get used to the heavy duty, and also because then the performance would feel more natural, for me as well as for the audience.



I want to do my training in all possible weather conditions. This way there won't be too many (un)pleasant surprises, and I keep the doors open for any creative thought. Because for me, the good ideas only come when the basics are there. Then it's possible to get out of the box. Why would you want to think outside the box, when you don't even have a box?

So, no extra pictures, no funny video's today. Not even a picture showing how I turn my shoe upside down to let the Sahara dessert out? No. I need experience at this location. I need the boring. Not the clouds to open up dramatically. Not today at least.
