MASH UP Madness...

Hi it's Katie informing you of how the mash up went. It may have happened a while ago, but i am not the most speedy person at writing the blog.
I think the mash up went fab. It was one crazy maddness but was still great fun for everyone involved.
We arrived at the Arnolfini just before luncheon so that we could set up our stalls/creation zones ready for the aftrenon. After makig sure everthing was looking prepared we went over our plans for the afternoon over a spot of lunch. The stress levels for me were building by this time as i was imagining hordes of young crazy children screaming, which was not luckily what we saw.
The two stalls that we had set up were: A badge making dressing up mash up and a mental octopus patchwork area. First stationed to the badge making desk, our first challenge was to work out actually how to use the damn machine without messing up all the badges. Once this was working out fine we chilled out slightly until we started to see some families appearing through the Arnolfini doors.

 

 

 

 

 

These are the crazy ass badges we created

Once the badges were being decorated with peoples most lazy food, most lazy animal and other such lazy creations, we got on with the dressing up. The dressing up involved the children dressing up in clthes which made themm feel lazy and then getting into lazy poses. Some of the children were paticularly creative and came up with insane costumes.

The other stall which we had was one in which the children had to draw their own interpretation of Cosimas giant octopus. With the colourful drawings we patchworked them over a table so that all of them could be seen. The pictures turned out amazingly colourful and brightened up the foyer of the Arnolfini.

The table once we'd finished with it...

The day was one creative collection of colour and craziness. But it was enjoyable craziness and working with lots of deifferent people was an amazing experience for us all. Untill Next time
Au revoir Katie
