Advice needed: Lighting our structure

howdy! My crew, Suspension of disbelief, has been madly crocheting a big ol' jungle gym for y'all to climb on and now we are working out our lighting details. We're thinking of using lamp posts outside the piece (6 total) to attach LED spot lights too and shine onto the whole thing. Preferably with ...

Re: Suspension of Disbelief - giant crocheted playground

Clarification: Our disappointment wasn't regarding not getting money from the bORG - it was support in general - tickets being our biggest barrier. Those of our crew who could afford it, and were able to, DID purchase tickets during the open general sale - but I'm not sure if you heard: Tickets sold...

Re: Suspension of Disbelief - giant crocheted playground

Just so ya know - this project was not deemed worthy of any support form the bORG.

Consider me befuddled.

Not sure how the heck we can pull it off now since it takes so many hands to set up. Who knows if our hookers can even find tickets to get in. Ugh.

Re: Art Grant & tickets & placement questions

Thanks everyone! I shared all of this with my gang and we agree with Crypto Fish on this one - those of us who can afford to will try to purchase tickets on Feb. 26th and go from there. I can't wait to get this thing in the air and climb all over this shit! http://igg.me/at/suspend-disbelief/x/21508...

Re: Suspension of Disbelief - giant crocheted playground

Yes!!! We encourage anyone and everyone who'd like to keep their hands busy to get crocheting. We decided at our last meeting to try to work with hexagons, 6 sided polygon, granny squares. We're currently experimenting to see how big an average one will be using 2400 feet of 1/4' white nylon rope. W...

Re: Suspension of Disbelief - giant crocheted playground

We had a very successful test run of just a very small part of our project at SeaCompression (Seattle's decompression party). People really enjoyed interacting with it - and it was very visually pleasing. You can see more pictures here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.379659002167119&type...

An adult sized playground - crocheted with love from rope - creating a place to suspend disbelief, play and open yourself up to the possibilities. Inspired by large, crocheted, net-like playgrounds around the world - we are going to bump it up a notch and make one large enough for adults too. Ours w...
