Yesterday I watched an interesting video by Chantal Akerman made in the 70's. I really liked how it was framed and although I felt it went on too long the snippets of everyday actions were very watchable. I write this phrase in my journal. 'The theatre of the everyday'..

As I chatted to my fiance I became increasing annoyed because I couldn't remember something which happened yesterday. In my frustration I subconsciously started to wash up the cutlery and without me realising had arranged them as you see above! It was really exciting to see how in control I was on the outside, when internally I told a different story! It reminded me of the film from earlier and how interesting everyday actions can be!..
