Three Ideas

Give everyone in the room a tree-like piece of broccoli. Each stands holding the broccoli upright. A miniature forest appears. each arm becomes a root, each head a moon, body the land, and speech the sea. Speech is altered. Many resort to medieval inflection - thee and thy.

Break into your own house. Steal your most valuable possessions and sell them. Use the money to replace the window or door you kicked in. Tell the story as often as possible.

I would like to commission a giant pint shaped glass - a glass for goliath - as a public sculpture. The glass has the volume for a years worth of blood. It is sighted outside in a town centre. The glass is strengthened so it cannot be smashed. During the year, it fills with rainwater. It becomes a lens and latent fountain. Birds drink from it. In another part of the city there is an equivalent sized wine-shaped glass.
