Curation
- use Command Line for one-touch activation by invigilator, and for remote control e.g. volume
- show performance piece i.e. video of interaction with viewer as back-up if technical issues
- TINT co-curated show at Watermans, East London-based
irini@watermans.org.uk - bump up contrast on projections / avoid sepia or similar

- add credits e.g. code (Daniel Schiffman, Ed Kelly), press
- major adjustments
- build plinths
- minor adjustments
April 2011
- interaction experiments (see Ed’s tutorial)
- get business cards or post cards done early
