I thought that there was a real lack of information given about this lecture, because I only managed to hear about it from a friend of a friend in another group who received an email, but it has come to my attention earlier in this project that a lack of communication is common within Unit x, so this came to no surprise to me.
Anna Douglas started the lecture by trying to explain how she couldn't explain exactly what she does, so instead she would talk us through what previous projects she had been involved in. After showing us many examples of people who had collaborated together and not really mentioning the work she had been involved in she went on to explain that she is involved in setting people up who are willing to collaborate together in order to create interesting and innovative outcomes.
It felt like this lecture was more about the theory of working in a group, which was a little disappointing because I had expected to see Douglas's collaborative work, and hear her thought process through out a project.
One part that did catch my attention was when she was explaining about site specific art and site responsive art. It got me thinking which one mine will be at the end of this project and if I will have a choice in where my work will be displayed. It seems to be getting a bit late in the project for us to be expected to find an exhibition space.
