I worked with performance artists because they were more open to a collaborative approach and to working with the body and voice without needing to over-direct the performance. When they revealed 'something else' in real-time, I knew some of those moments required keeping, so it would evolve through the making process. I try and allow the medium to move through the collaborative process as there are elements that are so unique but could be missed with over-determination. At the same time, I was conscious of avoiding bad habits of over-dramatisation or making the work feel overly performed. A significant amount of the recording was made in one take, allowing the voice, breath, eating and bodies to remain responsive to what was actually happening in the room rather than being overly rehearsed or constructed. The artists I collaborated with and who took part were Robin Woodward, Michael Bryan and Tiffany Howe.
