taking a long time to get somewhere
(a 1 minute act in 1 hour)
a video and performance by Jen Urso

April 16, 2010 (Third Friday)
7–9 PM (performance begins at 7 PM and will last 1 hour. audience can come and go.)
1341 W. Woodland — PHX (map is on this previous post)
(southeast corner of 15th Ave and Van Buren, in the backyard)
In this 2nd event for First Backyard, we also welcome Join and Cast Ventures, a Phoenix Art Community publication where Artist Book meets a Participatory Zine.
Stop by for this one-night only performance and to find out more about the 
Join and Cast Ventures project.

For this piece (thought up after a rare 3-hour afternoon nap a few days ago) i will record myself doing something for 1 minute, then stretch the video out to an hour, then perform the action at the 1-hour pace during First Backyard. Video of both the real time action and the slowed-down footage will be shown while i perform the task.
