| Title | Story-boards for 'Lip Synch', 'Blue Life', 'Continuous Performances' and 'Attack' |
| Date | 1979 - 1980 |
| Description | Four colour story-boards with holograph descriptive text for proposed film works and installations. The illustrations are as follows:
/1 Coloured felt-tip story-board titled 'Initial story-board for Lip Synch', dated 1979-1980. Includes a detailed holograph description of the proposed single screen film work in which a close-up image of a pair of lips is projected over a loudspeaker. As the film progresses, deepening shades of lipstick are applied to the lips.
/2 Coloured felt-tip story-board titled 'Initial story-board for Continuous Performance', dated 1980. Includes a detailed holograph description of the proposed single screen film work in which a film of two people having a conversation is disrupted by the changing images reflected in the mirror between them.
/3 Coloured felt-tip isometric drawing titled 'Blue Life - Projected Installation', dated 1980. Includes a detailed holograph description of the proposed installation in which the 'viewer' walks through a narrow room in which two display cases - one containing a wax model of male genitalia, the other of female genitalia - move backwards and forwards narrowing the space further.
/4) Coloured felt-tip and pencil isometric drawing for a projected installation titled 'Attack', dated 1980. The original title 'Viewpoint' has been crossed out by Dye and replaced with the revised title. Includes a detailed holograph description of the projected installation in which four projectiles, each back-projected by anamorphic images of bombardment, point towards the viewer.

| Notes | The drawings originally accompanied an application to the Artists' Film and Video Committee of the Arts Council for a bursary of £2,568 to make the works. The works were never realised, suggesting the application was unsuccessful. |
