more fun at the 'Factory'

Although it was a rather bleak January afternoon, the DLWP was pretty busy and we had plenty of eager folks ready to dress up and pose as one of Andy Warhol's many illustrious and glamourous friends and aquaintances for a fabulous photo opportunity.

'Come up and see me sometime !"

"We are the Girls..."

"People ask me everywhere is that really all your hair ? "

"Close But No Cigar. Sharp suit, big car Who do you think you are ?"

A friend of Guy Gawkes perhaps !

"Dressed up All dandied and dressed up All feathered and pressed up And feeling so fine Dressed up"

"I tried a handlebar design and my Fu-Manchu was real fine."

"My Ronald Coleman made 'em blink, my Pancho Villa made 'em think."

"They're mysterious and spooky and all together ooky."

"Put the camera on me, I got all this jewellery on me."

"I spy for the FBI, I got an X-ray camera hidden in your house."

"We're a couple of swells, We stop at the best hotels, But we prefer the country far away from the city smells."

"Cause my hair is curly and my teeth are pearly ...."

All ears...

We're back again at the De La Warr today for Part 3 of our participatory project - recording the voice of the Pavilion through the sounds of what's happening here during the Warhol Is Here exhibition. With the sound of Christmas carols echoing through the building, this session has been mellow and definitely festive. Here's what we heard...

Downstairs a lady to another lady Looking at the Norma Jean
"Oh its Jean… Jean what was her name. Billie Jean"
Security Guy interrupts "Norma Jean not Billie Jean King"

Inside:
calm christmas music
clinking glasses
drone of people talking
Outside:
crash of waves
clatter of skateboards
screech of the seagulls

And finally thanks to David Wright for this beautiful poem inspired by the sounds of Warhol:

Vibrations in essence, resonate around and through me,
Music dances, filling the moments between chatter,
Humming creeks split the gentle motion of the sea,
Voice over voice, try to please, try to flatter,
Warhol on black, speaks in dark tone,
As the door slams behind him on a time that is gone,
Broken clicks of heels, as they stride cross the floor,
Out onto the sea and the sound of the shore.

lights! camera! action !

A very busy afternoon at the "Look at me: Who am I?" photo booth with plenty of people prepared to try on groovy gloves, wavy wigs, twinkling tiaras and various superstar style accessories. The feather boa continues to be hugely popular and it is surprising how quickly the inner 'star' shines through !

Born to Boogie !

"Fetch me my longsword ..."

Ladies and gentlemen Hurry hurry hurry Step right up . .

"Who Me ?..."

Is it cos Im cool ?

"Is that a photographer I see before me?"

Abracadabra !

"I feel pretty, Oh so pretty .."

Altogether a fun afternoon with winter sunshine and a happy crowd all keen to be famous for
15 seconds.
