We meet on the first Thursday of the month, usually to listen to a speaker, followed by question and answer session/conversation I will discover  from this blog as it progresses, how to go about it, how to write it. This […]

As the final degree show approaches, it is difficult to believe that this process has lasted nearly three years. Generally, apart from the blog, the written component is finished and the show is all that stands between ‘us’ and that […]

As our final degree show draws nearer and the pressure should be increasing, I find myself really ‘letting go’. My ideas for a large zen-inspired garden installation have been curtailed due to a lack of a large enough space, but fortunately […]

…..And so it was on a Wednesday morning that I found myself full of trepidation, wondering what the hell I had done, driving into the Dukes Arts Centre.  A very surreal experience for me as I lived in Lancaster for […]

Today I sat down at the Sage in Newcastle with Shelly Knotts, a coding and data networking specialist who’s assisting me with sound synthesis and data interpretation, the last-but-one piece in the jigsaw before testing and evaluation. Our aim was to take […]

This blog is really merging with my main blog https://www.a-n.co.uk/blogs/waves  now… {It was temporarily true!}

I have just got back from a lovely afternoon at the Creekside open. The show seems to have mixed the dark and the funny and the darkly funny. It was a pleasure to meet Sasha Bowles who I have only […]
