On a beautiful 12th of September, 12 of us met at the Pumphouse: Ian, Dan, Robert, Paul, Barabara, Ken, Tony, Gill, Marion, Tuppy, Clare and Jonathan.
We talked about what might be the central subject of our project ?
The myths of water
The controlling of the power of water
The contradiction between the naturalness of water and the technological, chemical treatment that we put it through
Water and play
We talked about the tropical sea that the chalk aquifer once was
About the serpent and the corridors of the pumphouse
About how both the past and a science fiction world was suggested by the building
And how you might represent the source.
Drawing it all together I think (as far as words will go) that we're dealing with, The beneficial power of water. And how we use and abuse it.
Leading us to something domestic and global, mythic and petty. Neptune enjoying a brew.
