2 weeks ago, the peers and I were asked to form ourselves into pairs and explore ‘drifting’. Sophie Warren and IĀ could not decide where to go from our starting point (The Drill Hall). Therefore, to begin our drifting, we flipped a coin to choose which way to go and we did this every time we approached different directions. Our drifting ended when we ended up in the Lincoln public library. I think walking down a place where you barely walk down allows you to open your mind and take note of the different surroundings.

Teaching Performance Studies by Carl Lavery
Rob Anthony and I chose one of the 25 instructions from Lavery’s article. We chose the one where we explored Lincoln by improvising stories about the people caught on the camera (video is yet to be published).
Instead of walking through our routine paths, we wandered through a route which we were not too familiar with. Leading to the idea of ‘drifting’ I think walking down a place where you barely walk down allows you to open your mind and take note of the different surroundings.
