Incubation 7
‘Symposium’ Funding Pitch
After Inc 6 Sim Edwards had written a funding application to the Arts Org ‘Manchester Independents.’ For this application he had to find a way of distilling the work being done in the Incubations into the form of an event. He opened Inc 7 by sharing his distillation with PW.
Conference Outcomes
PW are split into 3 groups and handed tables showing possible artwork ‘outcomes’ for each Configuration.
For further information:
N1 – Conference Outcomes Sheets PDF
‘Deansgate Suite 3’ Floorplan
Each group is given the floorplan of a venue-hire suitable for hosting large-scale symposia. PW have to lay out the outcomes for each Configuration in space (by drawing circles on the map for each ‘permanent’ artwork) and time (by drawing triangles on the map for each ‘temporary’ artwork and also writing in what time it would take place on the set-list table below the map).

FIBER FUNCTOR FARM
by Hannah Warren, Fallen Lemon, The Grand Tour, Thea Luckock and Dom
Minutes to presentation by The Point
All takes place in a dream flashback to an impromptu party (mystery ‘motive’) in ‘field k’. There was beef between 2 people : ‘Serre’ (a woman) vs ‘algebraic pro-group’.
Verbal exchange
Audiences mind has constructed beef.
Play is a Reconstruction of what took place
Piecemeal grain is growing in the ‘field k’, the beef is part of the origin story. Piecemeal cannibalises itself. ‘Fiber functo’r is a disease on the crop of piecemeal that has psychedelic effects.
‘Serre’ comes on stage and the stigma is already there

‘Manifest Incarnations’ – these are the pantheon of gods.
Everything is defined/everyone is ruled by ‘intuitions’ – these are the psychedelic interactants that rework people’s worldview.
Sexual revolution – new ways of thinking
‘Motivic galois groups’ – motivations, literally.
Everyone can be split into ‘motivic galois groups’ or ‘Fiber functors’ – another extreme group of people who have consumed so much of the psychedelic ‘fiber function’, they have become extreme, satanic – lots of porn, alcohol etc. Too much intuition, too motivated.
All of this is happening within the context of the gods
‘Cohomology theory’ is a religious teaching, the text that is encoded ? into this nexus.
End of 1950s time period
Everything before was ancient, the primordial soup. This is a following time period.
‘Serre’ and ‘algebraic pro-group’ from previous para are the adam and eve ancient history to this scenario’s present time
So the beef mentioned there is like original sin – the audience don’t know what happened but feel they are supposed to know
All of this new stuff comes from the introduction of the ‘fiber functors’ which bring in ‘intuition’, this new actant
