i’ve been thinking alot about the degree show and what i want to show…

i’m thinking of a space with a gathering of objects which sort of sum up my concerns, although this space will not be an installation as i want each peice to be able to work on their own as well as within this larger gathering…to this end i’m thinking of having something simular, prehaps even a copy of an object in a compleatly diffrent area of the building or even city?? or prehaps documentation elsewhere… obvisouly still a lot to work out but i’ve been drawing up some things which could start to work togeather…

one thing i’m working on ideas for is a trailer:bench:bed which i’ll ellaborate on some other time…

i’m also working on a space seperating object which is going to be a sort of swiss army knife of space re-use…

maybe…anyway theres some drawings and notes for that to the right… and i’ve started work on a physical (3D) sketch of this which is something i’ve found really useful in working out sizes and other technical details – something i wouldn’t have tried if it wasn’t for an artist talk i attend yesterday by neal rock who showed a few of his own “sketches”

I’ve been working on a collection of drawings which i can see becoming an on-going strand of work…bassically i’m collecting images of backpacks from the internet (if anybody wants to help out jpegs to [email protected] with your full name please!!) and then digitally drawing them in photoshop,

i’m thinking about ways we traditionally travel through actual spaces here and how the objects we use in doing that can be translated into our journys in digital space

i’m trying to work out what i keep in my digital backpack at the minute – i think it might be this blog, my facebook, my youtube account, hotmail account, itunes account, photoshop…

blog = sketchbook

facebook = social club / bar

youtube = VCR / DVD player

hotmail = mobile phone

itunes = collections

photoshop = pencil case
