Quake: A conversation across a page with the venues curator (whist straining to keep our knees in line with the surface of a structure imitating an upturned lasso).

Still from a skit with a joke in it that starts a little something like, 'So, three guys walk in to a bar'

Put simply I guess its just a deconstructed joke, but I don't tend to put things simply. Maybe you could say; An attempt to find a place for all the thoughts around a subject that doesn't want to be pinned down but is about things meeting at a point? Or maybe we could state the ingredient so far:
mirror as pillar
lasso as a hook
clockwise as anti that
landscape as heartache
doing as fakement
paint as placement
..... and some other things that no doubt alliterate.
and Sophie will you take Rock's role?
