Catching up with Griz-O - Lucas Vaughn. A chat before we present a talk on photography and music to the public at Gloucester Museum on the 22nd March 2022.

I held a meeting at JOLT, Creative Community Space in Gloucester on 03 03 22. We met up to discuss how we will present to the public and to come about a few main talking points to help us establish our aims of the whole event. We started with introducing ourselves and our place in the community, them I will explain the importance of photography in the modern age we find ourselves in and why it's an important roll for me to do what I do... We will then have a discussion between the photographer perspective and the musicians perspective to help articulate to the public the symbiosis of the works created between ourselves and how the work is actually made... How the relationships are formed and how access is gained into peoples lives to be able to photograph them comfortably but meaningfully. I will also present how they work is presented in its final form from my personal take on it all and also how commercially it is realised in the world of public art and engagement within communities. 

There is still a lot of development and a good slideshow to create and finalise but we are getting there. 

Next meeting is with JPDL (Dave) to discuss and get him in the know of how we will present and his role too. Having these two friends along side me presenting and us communicating in a serious public domain will help us all grow and come about more solid perspectives from either side. They are both extremely talented and establish artists within Gloucestershire and are great friends to be there. Stay tunes and come to the talk. love.
