A multi-media event staged to produced concepts for image development and artist collaboration. Production, staging, scriptwriting, and direction created in collaboration with participants. Scope of event included solicited entries, selected jury, staged awards ceremony, and dinner dance. Documentation of the event consists of: one 14m Super-8; 100+ slides; surviving contest entries; audio tapes; and this website.

Participants were asked to submit entries in the form of artworks. Entries ranged from drawings of horses to a composition played on a recorder and submitted on audio tape. Horseman selected two judges to evaluate the entries along with himself.

A winner was announced and surprised with the news as she was coming out of her ta-class. The date was picked up at her abode, presented with a bunch of carrots, and escorted to the Chauffer driven Horsecar. The Chauffer made one stop on the way to the dance to secure pizza.

Horseman and Date were greeted at the Horsehead club by the Waiter. Dinner was eaten on plates suspended above the table. As the dinner concluded, guests began to arrive for the dance.

Participants signed up for dance partners by cards taped to their backs or other anatomy. Fun was had by all.

Additional detail provided from: Processes of Image Development, a paper submitted for a lecture proposal. 1984.
