Performance
Artist
I was approached by a new music artist to do an full image and branding for him. Including album cover, photoshoot, website, logo, the works. He talks about making music in all genre's and has global ambitions. Trying to transcend latin music and incorporate different cultures such as the gay subculture. Therefore naming his alter ego Cuco and basically projecting all of the creole madness onto him. The concept is entirely in my hands and it is an experiment for me. His music is his way of expressing his struggles in life and has a therapeutic almost escapist way of giving a positive message. With on the other hand having an emotional side note. My visual start is this:
The Meta Video

Hester Scheurwater
I saw Hester Scheurwater's work in the Frank Taal Gallery last week. Her artist statement is all sorts of amazing.
"The mirrored self-images encompass my private fantasies. They are my way of reacting on the imitated and fake media images, which are constantly calling upon our imagination, without intending to be taken too seriously. I try to deconstruct this call’s effect with my reactions by switching the ’subject-object’ relationship, without being victimised by it. My self-images show I am not a victim of an imposed sexually charged visual culture, instead I give a self-aware answer, in which I try to show my feelings and/or views on the unreal and fake imagery, which is forced upon us daily. This series of photos emerged from a collection of daily uploads on Facebook and my personal blog. In the digital public space, I try to reinforce the exhibitionist nature by presenting them in the context of a living room or a living room setting. In this context exhibitionism and voyeurism come together. Using my own body as a sex object in corresponding poses and an auto-erotic gaze I study voyeurism and exhibitionism."

Music Video
I was experimenting with DaVinci Resolve. Recently downloaded it and was trying it out. It's interesting to look back at the footage I shot in this music video prototype. I was directing her after each take we shot and eventually it became a choreographed performance. I think it's kind of interesting to think about choreography as something where both your body and your mind want to do the same things. The mind is telling the body to move as perfectly as possible. To practice the movement and attitude until the point arrives where the mind no longer has to think about proprioception and everything happens naturally.

The Artist is Present
I've rewatched the documentary The Artist is Present by Marina Abramovic. There's just so much in this documentary about the performance. And I think this brings me out of the box of a more theatre-like performance and also adds the magic of performance art. Here are my notes from it.

Piano concert
Was filming to see if there would be a recognizable change in the way this man was acting when he started to play his music. Never really happened. Apparently you can make any place into a small stage for performance, though that does not always allow for a person to transform into the stage persona. This turned out to be more of a situation where someone who happens to play the piano as a hobby just plays a little something for people to enjoy for about an hour.Carrie Bradshaw's Group Therapy
About how Sex and the City taught us all about life in NYC and the therapeutical reflecting main character Carrie Bradshaw, played by Sarah Jessica Parker. Tv Shows teach us how to live our lives and solve our problems. Though SATC is not the most heteronormative tv show.Cosplay
About living the fantasy. Using anime/manga/cartoons to escape reality and be whoever we want to be. Sometimes even have superpowers. Using the persona, re-enactment. Putting Beyoncé and Cosplay together makes me think of the second lives. The separation between the persona and the every day life 'self'. To have a successful persona is to completely forget about the self.
