Monotonous tasks are still commonplace in my day to day. I have now made 628 tiny little houses and packaged them to be sent back to the UK. My time at Gibraltar Point has quickly drawn to an end and […]

There’s a great line in the book ‘Notes from an Exhibition’ by Patrick Gale, about family life with a woman artist. The children recount a childhood of talking to a mother who, although she replied to their childish chatter, they […]

STARTING TO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER AGAIN After what seems like weeks of pulling things apart, packing up & making a mess, today is a BIG DAY – hopefully the start of things coming together again. Here it comes – […]

I went down to London (and it is “down”, not “up”, from here) last week ostensibly to see the William Orpen drawings at Tate Britain. Emerging from Euston Station feeling a little punch-drunk from travelling two hundred and odd miles […]

Natacha Roussel/experientiae electricae. While Pixy was a large part of the residency, I had no time to write on this blog,since I was up to now caught by all the manual work that is implied by so called “physical computing”, […]

Its the 24th, August. The ending of the Lighthouse Residency was nearly ten days ago – and it feels like a life time ago. Incredibly busy time, which lead to the next stage of the work – implementing prototype 08. […]

This week has been strange I did a bin-raid with Jamie on Wednesday very early in the morning at a place where I found out my father lived in 2003 in a little village near Cambridge. It was going to […]

Lucy Harrison hello Alex, seems we’re both showing in Bath at the same time- I went last week and your project sounds great! Maybe see you there some time. Lucy Alex Pearl Hi Lucy that would be lovely, that reminds […]

14/08/09 So we are at Art Villa Garikula, in the village of Akhalkalaki, near Kaspi in the Shida Kartli region, about one hour drive from Tbilisi. The landscape around is amazing and so is the house itself, built by Polish […]

17/08/09 Yesterday the Austrian artists presented their projects: mostly conceptual and site-specific installations and performances. The well-attended presentation was followed by a party with a Georgian buffet, a roast lamb, plenty local wine and obviously Georgian music and a bonfire. […]

Well, i have 22 papers left to fold… the end is in sight – thank god – my index finger looks about 20 years older than the rest! I’ll be meeting with the head of college on wednesday to discuss […]

NotPaidblog: well, guess what, the money didn’t go through again. No travel money, no fee money – nothing. I am pretty disappointed, but not surprised. I am leaving for Liverpool on Wednesday evening as it is my 30th birthday on […]

Dear Else,How are you? I loved your email and I knew I couldn’t do it justice with my reply-but I thought I would send you one anyway. I looked up Bratitsimo and you are right-I got a bit carried away […]

The week has been really busy. The exhibition came down on Wednesday and as always only took half a day to do. What a complete contrast to the 3 day stint getting it up and again that peculiar taking down […]
