Inside Out takes place from 31st August to September 9th 2012 with ten days of outdoor performances, which will transform Dorset’s rural, urban and coastal settings into a series of magical worlds. This blog is all about the performances and the artists. It's intended as both documentation and a response to the work on show.

The Rock Charmer - finale
Part of the pulsating finale to the Rock Charmer - a spine-tingling performance in a remote clifftop quarry in Dorset.
The show is a collaboration between music legend Kimmo Pohjonen and the enchanting live cinema experience of the Paper Cinema. Just as a snake charmer makes the snake reveal himself, Kimmo and Paper Cinema are charming the rocks to reveal their stories and their history in sounds and live animation.
The performance is part of Dorset’s Inside Out festival of extraordinary events in extraordinary places - both the location and the performance don’t get much more extraordinary than this - a rock face in front of the audience, a sheer drop behind them, and a mile long walk down a stone path from the Square and Compass pub.
The performance, on September 16th and 17th offered a few extra surprises as well - including a cave lined with sculptures of prehistoric creatures skillfully projected onto the walls like ancient cave paintings and a series of giant zoetropes, with moving images from the show.
