I have begun my breaking down of Guy Debord's Society of the Spectacle and should not be surprised to realise that it is taking a lot longer than I had initially anticipated. The truth of the matter is, I am struggling to understand exactly what it is that he is saying. I was hoping that my A Level in Philosophy & Ethics would have prevented such an issue but it would seem that I may be out of practice, or that he is indeed far more advanced than I had ever been prepped for. Luckily, I am able to get the general gist which in itself is very helpful but ultimately not ideal.
Today we had our first meeting since our return to Northampton, discussing some of the projects we will be engaged in this final year and I have to say that it really brought a few things home to me. We've also very much been thrown into the deep end being informed that we have auditions on Tuesday and Wednesday with two new directors which means that the pressure is on. Luckily, I like to think that I work quite well under pressure and so I am not panicking too much.
I will hopefully blog again some time within the next week just to keep any of you regulars up to speed on exactly what will be going on, when and where etc. For now though, I have to go and hunt for some audition pieces and devise one too whilst I am at it. Ciao for now!
