(Frustration) B keeps forgetting to bring his tap-tiles/projector/second computer, and he then decides he does not want to bring the second computer until the performance---hard to uninstall etc. N & P start thinking up other computer options for tap-tile and stage left screen—including running both AG and Jitter from my laptop. B tells N what drivers to download at home. (We soon find out that Jitter will not run tap-tiles from my laptop even with installs.)

  

B/K/N/M are present. We get all the equipment installed except tap-tiles


N sets up the Access Grid PIG (Personal Interface to the Grid) from here laptop, camera, headset mic, and Ethernet cord on a rolling cart.
Media clips begin to circulate. N tells A to work on video editing fire. N&K Discuss Video
Video Order
Everything needs to be set up for Friday (last day in the Dance Theatre space until the week of the performance). N is frustrated that it is taking so long to get the space ready. Finally all computers, screens, cameras, projectors pretty much in place. P and B finish installing while N is dealing with/ scheduling etc. Hanging Screens

Dancers begin to notice themselves on camera (an online on the Access Grid) saying “hey, look, that’s me…it’s soo weird.”


Notes to self: Calmly walk away/towards others. State, clarify, connect (N is figuring out her role is to herd cats and to keep people working together and talking, which requires patience, insight, backing, pushing, and constant reminding.)

[To do: drivers at home, begin PR blurb and list of where to send it, Access Grid meeting Friday 1:30, send out the call for participation. Find out K’s schedule and try to work it out with others (Tues 10-11:30 or 1:30 on) begin scheduling Earth rehearsals with/ Jimmy and Beth.]
