I took my saw along to the Desperate Men party and sat by the fire playing it. I met a woman called Ned who rather liked it and had a little go herself. She declared it very difficult and was duely impressed. She told me she was working with Faulty Optic on their show and that she thought a saw might be the perfect live accopaniment. We swapped numbers. I might call her...
I had a little chat with some puppets during the festival. I almost forgot they weren't real people...
The faulty optic style seems to fit with the slightly odd - macarbe?- sensibility that I like so much, which fits with the saw in looks and sound, traditional black faded grandeur & white face clown. It is also right on my 'growing edge' of automata that I've become so interested in recetnly.
