I get excited when I see people pushing circus apparatus, it’s great that people are challenging established concepts and exploring new ideas. Great to see Hege‘s LabTime Research.

Lab:time 2013
I’ve recently completed another Lab:time project, this time looking at the use of a Kinect camera, video projection and basic juggling. Thanks to Circus Space, Howie and Jon for making it possible.
Here’s some of the results…
Lab:time
I applied for the first round of Lab:time funding, looking for help developing ideas for a show. I received Lab:time funding for one part of my proposal, ‘Explore light trails with jugging’ and was allocated £750 and access to the Creation Studio at Circus Space.
The hardest part of the process was coordinating a date that worked with Circus Space, myself and the participants.
I spent a couple of fun, yet intense days working with Howie Bailey a VJ (and with the help of Jon Udry, a fellow juggler).
Lab:time allowed me the luxury to explore and develop an idea that I was certain would produce useful results. Not having the pressure of a deadline or end client to please allowed time to investigate different techniques that may have been overlooked in a different environment.
I’d strongly recomend applying to Lab:time if there is an interesting idea relating to circus lurking in the back of your mind. If there’s not, then get thinking!
