FUSPEY 2004
it has been a busy year.
After finally doing “playing with phi” land sculpture on lahinch beach just over a year ago, after waiting about 3 years, things have been pretty hectic.
it was quite a political year with the war being on and ireland having the EU presidency; the mayday demo against the direction the EU is taking and george bush`s visit to ireland being the biggest events.
on stevens day, dec 26, tragedy struck Iran. 40 of us walked dublin bay and raised €7,000 for the earthquake victims in Bam, Iran.
but it was also a hugely creative year, irelands first IMC (independant media centre) was set up for 10 days around mayday, which was amazing. later in the summer we turned a shed in a back garden into the jamaican bar and made a few new cocktails.
with EASA04 there were highs and lows. overall i feel we did some great small things but on the whole EASA did not produce the magic that perhaps LA CP was expecting from them, that being, in my opinion, to go out and mix with the people of roubaix, excite them and from that encourage them to play in LA CP. it was a great challenge, EASA architects went back to the city and the people: i feel we could have done a lot better.
back home after EASA there was festivals, tournaments and urban play
theres a good buzz here in dublin with a crew trying to make a social centre and to do some urban gardening
but now its thesis time and a new ecological corridor for the city is being explored and hopefully that idea will soon become a reality.
