TO REAL TO BELIEVE

Day 1

10-07-08

I don’t know if you do know, or not, but this blog has a purpose for its existence – do you remember of me, talking about the Spectator’s Oportunity (oriented by Rogério Nuno Costa, following the rules of Dogma’05)? – it’s a project. I don’t like to repeat things over and over since they are already written, click in the names to get to know better this project.
I arrived at Lisbon in July 9 and was presented to two coleagues that were already here – Katinka and Katia, from Berlin. The other participants, Hugo and Alexandre (which I also personally don’t know) arrive this week. Only in Sunday we will be all together.
We are constantly being filmed, because what we do is already the result of the project (see Dogma’05). You can access to the house throught the website: http://www.rogerionunocosta.com/house.html (note: Macintosh aren’t able to see the footage, even with Firefox).
Yesterday morning, Rogério was talking to be about what Dogma’05 was and what it was all about. I had already read about those rules, but this time I had the opportunity to clarify some points and doubts. The day was dedicated to brainstormings and project presentations. I didn’t know what to do. I felt lost and confused, swimming in a sea of experiences and feelings, not being able of even thinking. I took notes just to not forget things and not to reflect on them. So much was discussed that I had the impression of not retaining anything.
And then and idea appears, this morning while waking up, and I took note of this in the cell-phone:

“ The universe of waiting, of time and pacience – suspension of life, pause – the dimension of time. The feeling of impotency, frustration and conformity.”

Can you understand it? Now I really need your help organizing my head.
Sugestions are accepted, ideas, whatever. Now it is you entering on stage. I need you!
