Excavating some interesting ideas from the blog (circa 2007) we (Borrelle & Tjhia) stumbled across the '1 Week Decision' thread. Like to ask: Can we request a brief tutorial on this process, on its inception, relevance and also the successes/failures of OWD as a possible engine for action: a sort of an historical reenactment so to speak. Perhaps a concept that appealed given the ambling nature of inter-island/continental communication...
Any one up for such an activity?

TAC as we understand it on November 27th, 2008
THE Association of Collaboration (TAC) are a group of artists, writers, curators, musicians and interested people from Australia and New Zealand who converse under the auspices of a joint project to test collaborative frameworks and methods of communication.
TAC formed originally in 2006. Original members met after an open call from artist Liz Allan for people who were interested in discussing the nature of collaboration. These early meetings were in conjunction with the show Every Now & Then at Enjoy Public Art Gallery. Following this, TAC went on to put together the Contemporary Art Mobile Response Unit, an educative and participatory trolley, for Telecom Prospect 2007 at the Wellington City Gallery.
After this initial burst of activity, members of TAC splintered away from their base in Wellington, to Melbourne, New Plymouth and Christchurch. Geographical distance has demanded new methods of communication, interaction and collaboration. Members have left and new ones have joined. TAC continues in its many amorphous and unlikely forms to posit new projects, leaving an email trail of discussion in its wake.
Current Members: Liz Allan, Andrea Bell, Jessie Borrelle, Melanie Oliver, Thomasin Sleigh and Jon Tjhia
