Thinking about using disparate but related presentations/texts/images in the seperate lifts reminded me of performance lectures by Alexandre Singh, he speaks in a really eloquent but irreverent way and links whole seta of seemingly random images or sometimes uses images as a background to counter/add to what hes saying. I also like these notebook pages, maybe theres something in the idea of notes as opposed to conclusive, linear texts; the way we tend to ramble (!) and the way notes are compiled into a coherent form but nthe lift will deny a coherent presentation.
Maybe we could have flip charts?!
There's also the idea of the internal/external voice working simultaneoiusly. I'll show you the text I write where I attempted to speak of the space of reading and that of writing with that of an unidentifiable traveller. The multiple spaces we inhabit from moment to moment- we could divert off course and include external interruptions, passing thoughts. references to the space of and the doing of the presentation not just the contents of it.
I saw a group reading of B.S Johnson's House Mother Normal at the Whitechapel, the characters thoughts began to overlap and were s=read siomultaneously, sometimes making sense in order and at others being quite incomprehensible. Maybe what we say is related but diverges.
