The BAZ Art Angel Open Proposal 


(unfortunately it didn't make the top 100)



On the Rind-a-bout


On the Rind-a-bout is an ambitious new dance initiative in the Black Country from archetypal Dance Company Touche Dudlay.


As part of Black Country Diversity and Healthy eating festival 100,000 schoolchildren will ceremonially discard empty pork scratchings packets in to a large hole near the Station Hotel*  on their way to hanging out outside of the chip shop near top church.  


Once the hole is full of empty wrappers a large crane will slowly lower a troop  of Dancers in to it to the tune of Schubert’s 4th symphony. In a scene not to dissimilar to the ending of the Crystal Maze**  the dancers will search for a ‘Golden Scratching’, forged by local craftspeople from the contents of Cash for Gold and earlier deposited in to the pit by local celebrity Wagner. *** 


The night will be live screened to the televisions above the bowling lanes at the Superbowl and recorded for posterity by regional sculptors who will be coinciding with the event by taking part in a live stone carving event, carving figures writhing in pork rind out of marble shipped over from Italy with a consignment of fake designer handbags. **** 


The whole event is designed to celebrate the importance of deep fried snacks to the mining community and promote good litter management.

 


* Dug by off-duty bus drivers over the course of 6 months. 


** 90’s TV Gameshow hosted by Gavin Wade.


*** Moustached PE Teacher from the X Factor 2011. 


**** This, along with Wagner’s appearance fee will take up most of the budget.
