I worked in public over several months on a regular schedule,using the library's giant saori loom, and anyone could stop by and ask questions. A lot of interesting conversations. I blogged regularly too and got great comments about it.
I thought it was time to visit it and it was much more vivid and complex than I'd remembered. I pulled and stretched it a bit, but basically it's fine.
The grand finale where I finished the last few passes with a flourish, were done at a celebratory event of the library's birthday, as a joint artwork with Bill Bauer, great pianist and friend, who improvised as I worked.
There was a large, dead silent, audience, until we finished, to waves of applause!
Great fun.
