Kaleidoscope
New Zealand feminist artist Vivian Lynn is installing a major work - Lamella Asherim- in Studio 8 at the Avalon Television Centre ready for a recording tonight, and a showing in the morning. It involves setting up almost invisible nylon threads and 15 columns all of which need meticulous adjustment. Vivian talks about her work in between working on setting up the installation and working around the studio lighting director, Howard Anderson, trying to light it for television. Vivian also needs to assess what the installation will look like on television, rather than in an exhibition hall. Composer Sue Alexander needs to compose and record a short piece to be played at the recording
