In responding to the challenge, I downloaded the zips provided by remix the species and found myself drawn to the footage of the beauty queens. It led me to think about the metaphorical fences they drew around each other, representing a state or country with defined borders and latent rivalries. Brought together in a competitive environment, who knows what bubbles beneath the sugared surface?

Do we judge a house much like we judge a book, from its’ cover? (kath)
Sitting on my neighbours fence which is a large classical looking fence I began to discover a number of characteristics within my neighbourhood. The fence I lent on, rather than sat, is high with a smooth cream exterior. It is detailed with dark features such as bars, spikes and lights, propped at the crown of the fence. Unlike my fence at home, this fence felt majestic and had a sense of elegance to its’ exterior. Do we judge a house much like we judge a book, from its’ cover?

challenge #2 (raph)
sitting on my neighbour’s fence was a strange, awkward sort of experience. i was very aware that i had crossed a boundary into a space that wasn’t my own. i slid on right at the very end, my shoulder grazing my own fence, as if the closeness was some sort of safety net.

"Sit on a fence that you admire for 20 mins. What interesting things do you see, feel, hear?"
