punctuating a collection with a trail of red tennis balls

Milliken’s at Lodgemore Mill (the last working mill in town) have kindly offered to make me some red tennis balls which is great news. It is great to work with the only tennis ball fabric manufacturer in Britain. I maybe also should try and work with the only tennis ball manufacturer in Britain  too.

It is very sad news about Alexander Mc Queens death ..I have been reminded of this 2009 collection which is punctuated by red.  watch HERE

    red tennis balls are like big full stops, also goes well with the ‘red for stop, green for go’ of traffic lights

    I love the idea of red tennis balls as full stops. How about this as a description of the purpose of punctuation: ‘to tango the reader into the pauses, inflections, continuities and connections that the spoken line would convey’. (Thomas McCormack) I love the idea of the ‘tango’ driving the movement!

    thats great .. to tango the reader through the collection ..

    Full stops to stop viewers their tracks allowing them to view objects in a different light ..

    sounds like this idea is coming together very well, ’stop and reflect’
