 <\/p>\n

From Clare Best’s blog<\/a>:<\/p>\n

‘Here\u00a0is what I wrote in my journal after Tim and I first met in a caf\u00e9 in Brighton in January 2013:<\/p>\n

Met Tim Andrews in Brighton 16 Jan.\u00a0<\/em>Thought on train on way home about some kind of flexible\/low-maintenance start to a collaboration. Thought more overnight.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2018Take me with you\u2019 \u2013 this is the phrase that kept coming to me in the night. It has connotations of journey, of packing, of accompaniment, of company, of gathering in, of sharing.<\/em><\/p>\n

I see it perhaps for now as making \u2018swaps\u2019 by email of what each of us would take with us to the next world, if we could, if there is one\u2026 Things\/ideas we hold dear. Then each of us interprets or responds to each other\u2019s chosen thing. And so on.<\/em><\/p>\n

The items sent might be very fragmentary and abstract. They could be anything: a line from a song, a particular person\u2019s smile, a food, a mood, a book, a film, a favourite walk, a memory, etc etc \u2013 it could be literally anything.<\/em><\/p>\n

So we\u2019d build up a collage, a narrative. And each time we corresponded we\u2019d know each other better, so we would construct a kind of overlapping journal, or a conversation, through what we\u2019d choose and send each other.<\/em><\/p>\n

And here we are, three years later, with a robust friendship and about 50,000 words written, quite literally, between us \u2013 and all kinds of things we\u2019d like to show you.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a stimulating journey, full of laughter and tears and adventure and tea and cake, and we look forward to sharing it at BSMS on 18 February.<\/p>\n

The event is free, but if you\u2019re coming along please register in advance here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tim has produced a trailer<\/a>\u00a0and has blogged<\/a> about the project.’<\/p>\n
