Decisions, models, party
After yesterday’s lack of agreement on pretty much everything, we decided that it would help to actually do something today instead of talking. We had been discussing the idea of having something lifted by one of the many tower cranes in Roombeek, and so we set out to look for A: cranes, and B: things to move. This was not so fruitful, but might perhaps have helped to plant the seeds for later revelations…
We also began making little cardboard models of houses etc, which we were going to make a little photo/video shoot with later. Nothing spectacular and new here, but it certainly felt better to be making something rather than just talking about doing so.
Most important of all though today was the party, named Here as the Centre of the Dancefloor, which Nikos and Julien had been organising. We had quite a mix of Western, Arabic, Taiwanese and Sudanese music, and everyone seemed to have a good time. Not your crazy twenty-four hour Amsterdam-style squat party, but certainly a welcome break from working!
