Spencer Tunick Shoot

flo8s967qjh0nd

Good luck to everyone doing it in Dublin.
I did it in Cork and it was an amazing experience. Will never forget it. Great sense of togetherness and comradare, even though I was doing it on my own.

Just a note on the photos in the press and online; they are not the official photos. The ones by the artist should be even more special since he was in the best vantage point, with cherrypickers, etc.


Enjoy!!

i'm going to this on my own, none of my mates are up for it. if we're going to be hanging around for 4 hours for this we should organise pre-nudey drinks so we're not all billy no-mates in the nip

I think this is a good idea as well, meet somewhere near the pick-up point at around midnight and have a couple of drinks, then we can go together. May help with the self-conscience nature of going by yourself. Any further thoughts on this?

Sure, if we're meeting up first then count me in.

I'd probably be up for meeting. I'm still not sure what my plans are, waiting to find out if anybody i know is doing it. I'll confirm closer to Sat, but yis can count me in for now.

Is everyone quoted still up for drinks before catching the bus??
Everyone has gone very quiet since iMax had his say lol :pac:

You want to meet strangers from the Internet, get intoxicated & then take your clothes off with them...

Them's my thoughts on it

Nevyn

IT also states anyone who is believed to be intoxicated will not be allowed to take part.
So mind yourselfs.

Sifpilsen

I say we should be grand as long as people know to restrain themselves concerning the drinks. This kind of event is much better when sober, or at least able to do all the poses Spencer would like to take us through.

I don't know anything at all about Dublin and where a suitable meeting point is. So if someone with local knowledge could say a place where one can come with a backpack without being thrown out it'd be great.

Second email received today.. some points of interest..

There has been an overwhelming response to the installation and registration is now closed. Only those who have registered in advance will be accommodated.


Met Éireann are saying that Saturday morning should be dry but may be chilly so please wear warm clothes and bring a towel.


Please be aware that Spencer Tunick will take a number of photographs at this site. Some of these shots will involve a walk of up to 20 minutes to the changing area.

Media will be in attendance at the installation, though they will have to adhere to strict guidelines regarding the appropriateness of images generated and identity protection.

DavyD_83

Was just about to post that myself.

"There has been an overwhelming response to the installation and registration is now closed. Only those who have registered in advance will be accommodated. "

Could be a problem for the people who have been forwarded the stuff. On the other hand the first mail did say bring friends and family. Personally i doubt they'll turn away anybody without a completed form.

Still, no harm to be aware there is some risk of it.


And yeh, I'm still up for meeting before. Who's gonna name the time and place?

Brigida

At this point I will be proud to show my face along with the rest of me. I thought the people in Cork looked lovely. I have nosey relatives and so-called friends attacking me over this and trying to get me to back out but it's made me all the more determined to do it. I am going to throw caution to the wind and just enjoy.

SQ2

Is this a goodbye to hung-up Ireland!?

iMax

20 minute walk ??? WTF ???

arybvtcw0eolkf

A twenty minute walk!.. I know the South Wall area well, so I'm thinking that the shoot must be up along the wall, up by 'The half moon club' bathing area or even the lighthouse its self.

I'm slightly worried now about the registeration as I've had my documents forwarded to me, but as I'll be finishing work in the area at the start time I'm still presenting myself.

If I'm turned away, I'll walk home naked

There is a bar hotel oppisite store st garda station and beside Bus eireann not sure what it is like but i would be up for meeting if anyone else is. Suits me to get last train into dublin and early train home. Also wife was going to do it but i think she is backing out so meeting up for moral support would be good anyones opinion on this?

Sifpilsen

Dubbers: a (google)map reference would be good.

Hi

Are people meeting up before the event, I registered a few weeks ago when i heard about it and like a lot of ppl friends have developed issues with it etc... So im goin on my own.... .....

If people are still meeting up that would be great cause i think the moral support would be good.... I'll keep an eye on the forum tomorow to see where and when i suppose.....

Lookin forward to it now actually......:):)

Have been away for a few days. Couldn't believe that registration was closed. Can anyone help me out with the forms and locations. Used to walk the south wall regularly and the chance to be a part of this would be fantastic. Queen Bee not convinced that it will be a good idea. Early in the morning and cold weather doesn't appeal. If forms can be provided I will have another go at convincing her. I would hate to miss the opportunity. Surely there will be an amount of no shows and volunteers with forms filled out will be welcomed.

Thanks in advance.

Could anybody forward on the registration forms? I was out of the country and only heard about this now. Would love to be a part of it. edthetedkelly@gmail.com

WindSock

I don't have a form, the link is gone. But I'd be happy to meet in that hotel beforehand and try to worm myself into the shoot somehow

The hotel across from Store St Garda station is Hotel Isaacs.

http://www.isaacs.ie/isaacs-dublin-hotel/location.aspx

The last trains and buses are 11.30ish so how about meeting outside Isaacs between 12.10 and 12.20?

Everyone will have a bag of some sort so will be easy to identify

Does that sound ok to everyone??

edthetedkelly

Sounds like a plan to me poh

frice1710

Sounds good to me... Hotel Isaacs it is then......12.10....

See yee all there!!!

Hello,
This should be a fun sunrise shot. I think that I will go straight to the customhouse or perhaps one/2 in Kennedys beside Tara St station but I was wondering if anybody had any postphoto plans to meet up?I'd love to go to an early house (dressed) to celebrate the longest day and chat about the naked event.
