ART280 - P2 - 'What Is a Live Project?'

A live project in terms of fine art is one which involves the general public or a community. The success of a live project is determined by audience reception and participation, as the intention is to directly communicate with them.

This project I am working on is a live project, therefore I will measure the success in regards to how much the black metal community contributed towards it, the audience's acknowledgement of my themes, and how it fits into the artistic world. I will communicate with Black Metal fans from a variety of backgrounds and find out what defines specific music as 'black metal', and how they view the Northeast's involvement in the creation of the genre.

It is also important to note that live projects usually have an overarching 'event', which is used to open an exhibition, or it occurs at certain intervals over it's duration. Reflecting upon this, I am considering playing some experimental music as a performative piece for the opening, but this will be ultimately determined over the course of my research on artists. The research will allow me to make an informed decision as to whether a performance piece will relate to my themes and intentions.
