      Rachel Lois Clapham and Alex Eisenberg documented today’s 10 Performances event with a live feed they updated throughout the day. By the time my performance What To Do begins they’re halfway down their third page. I love their occasional attempts to type out variations on everything I was saying.

    • The Real Experiment November 4, 2009
      Allan Kaprow again.

I think his review raises some interesting questions about the role of the ICA in the curation of the work, [...]
