Feelgood Sunday, Love and Other Drugs P2
Warning. Potentially emotional.
Last year Sam - a vibrant, good looking 24 year-old man - was playing soccer when he suffered a series of massive strokes that left him fighting for his life.
Doctors believed that if Sam survived he would be unable to walk or talk.
Australian Story shows how the love and persistence of Sam's fiance and family has led to an amazing medical discovery and ongoing battle with health professionals.

Feelgood Sunday, Marlow and Fran Cowan of Ankeny.
An elderly couple walked into the lobby of the Mayo Clinic for a checkup and spotted a piano. They've been married for 62 years and he'll be 90 this year. Check out this impromptu performance.

Feelgood Sunday, BBC documentary, 'The Illusion of Reality'
So...fresh from a flattering comparative dip into all that was stupid we now travel to a place where complexity is explained in a way that even we can understand and questions are presented that ask us, who spend most of our lives in a mentally manufactured sandpit consisting of spoon fed political farce and personal adventures with consumerism and servitude to reactionary impulses emotional, economic and socio-political, what the entire playground could possibly be made of?
There is a certain dignity about being confused. I think laughter is the act of this being transmuted.

Feelgood Sunday; Hugo, Pantomime.
Met Hugo in Japan, then later in Spain, then later in Austria.
I wonder if that table tennis gag came before or after Frazers use of it? Just curious.
Hugo is one of the most relaxed playful clowns/pantomimes I've met. He counterfeits gile. He's a pretty purehearted individual. Unfortunately this is all the footage I could find. He has a great many 'bits' and is a classic street based performer.
He's originally from Argentina.

Feelgood Sunday,Samskeyti, Sigur Ros, unplugged.
I've been rehearsing a clown piece to this music the last few months. I discovered the unplugged version and had to lose a minute as the album version is just over 6 minutes.
This is 5-15.
oh well.....
It's melancholic, but I can uplift it. It is a simple seductive character piece with my stilt character and a chair and the deluxe version for stage will have a table as well.

It makes me feel braver than I am.

The Plan
Create a large-scale participatory art project that transforms messages of personal identity into pieces of artistic work. Everyone will be challenged to use black and white photographic portraits to discover, reveal and share the untold stories and images of people around the world. These digitally uploaded images will be made into posters and sent back to the project’s co-creators for them to exhibit in their own communities. People can participate as an individual or in a group; posters can be placed anywhere, from a solitary image in an office window to a wall of portraits on an abandoned building or a full stadium. These exhibitions will be documented, archived and viewable virtually.
About the Winner
JR’s career as a photographer began when he found a camera in the Paris subway. In his first major project, in 2001 and 2002, JR toured and photographed street art around Europe, tracking the people who communicate their messages to the world on walls. His first large-format postings began appearing on walls in Paris and Rome in 2003. His first book, Carnet de rue par JR, about street artists, appeared in 2005.
In 2006, he launched “Portrait of a Generation,” huge-format portraits of suburban “thugs” from Paris’ notorious banlieues, posted on the walls of the bourgeois districts of Paris. This illegal project became official when Paris City Hall wrapped its own building in JR’s photos.
