Summery of Meeting in Limerick Boat Club

Statement:
We are concerned eith the present pasts of spaces; with human experiences of the world which we believe to be both amassed and recommunicated simultaneously within our environment. We propose to make explicit the multiplicity of narratives of individual and collective that occurs side by side, transending the boundariesnof individual perceptions and linear time.

For the discussion in the boat club building, feb 18th, our group (Laura, Eilish, and Gavin) we were concerned with continuing our idea which involved introducing a living archive in the intermediate vacuum space inside the front entrance of the club.
The archive involves each group placing a piece relating to their concept in the Living archive. The archive occupies the window space in the form of vessels or containers. The archive will encourage people to pause in the space and occupy the space which would not in other circumstances be occupied. The perception of the space is altered. the question arose about the use of this space - was it appropriate. The space itself acts a s a container seperated by thresholds, within which a spatial experience can be realised through the position of the archive. It acts on a larger scale as an archive as transition, through time and space. The question also arose about how it was relevant to the project - it is a responce to the three weeks of work and exploration of percecptions rather than the space or building as an object. The issue of what each group could donate to this groups project also was highlighted in the discussion. It remains at the discression of each group to what they consider relevant to exhibit in their individual vessel within the archive.
