Capt. Hiltz on parade and spitting his dunny out Sir! I kept my end of the bargin and did the design modifications and just emailed them off. Yes assurances of invoice payment and contract have been given….but they still seem […]

Arts Council funding….well, that’s a bit of an enigma. I’m looking at all of the alternatives for getting funding to take some of the group to Stockholm to hang the show. The obvious thing would be start with AC funding. […]

annual report! I’m increasingly amazed how fast time appears to pass, and yet how often little really changes. As with the seasons it seems we settle into a rhythm that we barely notice and, in some cases, the realisation that […]

Dominique is absolutely right: there is so much UFO material and so many possibilities its hard to keep up. But in the spirit of getting stuff out there i have loaded the radar video footage and sent a copy to […]

Decamped studio Part 1 So the show is now up in the gallery space, i say show, but it more like a halfway point between showing stuff I have been making since i arrived and an exhibition. To combat the […]

I was in a show called EX at Leeds College of Art in September/October. There were around 10 artists, all of whom completed their foundation course at Leeds College of Art. The selectors selected eligible students based on their degree […]

Back from Morocco . I am now a blip photo convert –www.blipfoto.com/Libra- and getting a pic up each day proved a challenge from my iphone in North Africa. Despite all the very clear instructions they sent me from the site […]
